Background
At the Napa meeting in December, one of the Working Groups established was= =20 for Knowledge and Information Management. The group=01,s mission is to dev= elop=20 a system for capturing and distributing knowledge and information. The pil= ot=20 version of the group=01,s efforts is tentatively scheduled to be launched i= n=20 September 2000. Overview The product is a web based application to store knowledge and information,= =20 initially for Public Affairs as a pilot program, then as a system for all o= f=20 Enron. The system will be populated and maintained by users. The goal is = be=20 able to find specific data with as few =01&clicks=018 as possible, so data = will be=20 searchable and linkable between documents and topics. Each document will b= e=20 summarized, and will be =01&sanitized=018 to prevent confidential data from= being=20 distributed from the system. Input to the system will be subject to a revi= ew=20 process. Documents in the system will include white-papers, presentations,= =20 process histories and/or summaries, articles, links to external sites, and= =20 any other information identified as =01&knowledge=018 through this survey a= nd as=20 the system evolves that would be valuable to others in the company. (See= =20 attached diagram.) Request For the initial population of the system, we request your assistance in=20 developing a directory of Public Affairs experts who have specific knowledg= e=20 and can best communicate it. To do so, we ask for your input through the= =20 attached survey. We will contact the identified experts directly to solici= t=20 their submissions to the system. Your participation and recommendations ar= e=20 essential in making this system a shared success. Thank you in advance for= =20 your support! Please return your response to Elizabeth Linnell and Ricardo Charvel. We'r= e=20 looking for as many responses as possible before July 5 so that we can revi= ew=20 them during our next working group meeting. Any and all responses will be= =20 appreciated!
