The use of TiNK4u leads to the following results:
- >> Each co-worker FINDS relevant answers fast and effectively
- >> Interruption of experts is limited: create once, re-use many times
- >> Up-front efforts to knowledge development can be avoided (or limited):
- the need for knowledge drives its creation (outside-in approach)
- up-front creation in strategic domains is still possible (inside-out approach)
- >> Experts are acknowledged and become respected in their specific domains (based on contributions)
- >> The knowledge securing process is structured and supported
- >> Capturing knowledge is integrated in everyday tasks:
- by individuals, followed by validation from by co-workers and domain experts (approval)
- by groups of experts (forum)
- >> Validated information, such as papers and publications, is easily stored:
- integrated in an 'action basket' to quickly store non-validated content in the knowledge base
- enriched with mandatory contextual metadata (see TiNK Method)
