This research is conducted to assess and compare knowledge management practice in IT projects in the Ministry of Innovation and Technology and Information and Network Security Agency of Ethiopian. Quantitative research approaches were followed and this research is more of behavioral science research. None-probability sampling was used and the total population of IT project members, project sponsors and project manager of Ministry of Innovation and Technology (MinT), and Information Network Security Agency (INSA) was considered for this study; SPSS Version 21.0 is used for analyzing quantitative data. Knowledge management is a process of creating, sharing, using and managing the knowledge and information of an organization. In this study the process of creating, sharing, using and managing knowledge is assessed in project. Each process of knowledge management (that is creating, sharing, using and managing) is assessed from the perspective of IT project stakeholders. The study categorized the stakeholders in to three which are, project sponsors, project managers and project team member, and studied each knowledge management process from the three project stakeholders’ perspective. In addition to that the organization project culture is also assessed. Given the prominence of knowledge to efficiency and productivity, it is important that organizations manage their knowledge effectively. Knowledge management practices in INSA and MinT vary from each other. INSA’s project team members have a better understanding of the knowledge management practice and share knowledge in between project team. Among the 35 factors used to assess the knowledge management practice in INSA only 4 factors responded high towards knowledge management and in MinT only six resulted high toward knowledge management practice. The overall knowledge management practice indicated poor knowledge management practice in IT projects both in MinT and INSA and obtained a low response | en_US |
