Abstrak/Abstract |
The objective of this study is to provide both theoretical propositions and empirical evaluations to the association between knowledge management strategy (KMS) and organizational performance within a project-based organization setting. Of articular interest, firm’s size is included within the analysis as a possible moderating variable. Primary data is inquired by means of a crosssectional survey within a specific context of Indonesia construction firms. Out of 262 invited firms, 106 provide usable data (40.5 % response rate). The result shows that empirical data partially supports the hypotheses. It is found that in general, a positive relationship is observable between implementation level of ‘codification’ strategy and organizational performance. An unexpected, significantly negative association between ‘personalization’ strategy and performance is also observable. Further evidence also shows that for larger construction firms, management of knowledge which focuses on the codification strategy yields superior performance. Inconclusive results for smaller size organization suggest that more follow-up studies are required. |
