A Study of the Handling of Lessons Processing in Lessons Learned Systems and Application to Lessons Learned System Design

Abstract

A properly operated Lessons Learned System supports Knowledge Management and Organizational Learning. The method of handling lessons has an effect on successful operation of a Lessons Learned System. This research evaluates a sample of Lessons Learned Systems for their method of handling lessons. It provides a coding that allows a Lessons Learned System to be characterized over the spectrum of possible handling methods. It relates this coding to its effect on the three tasks of a Lessons Learned System: collecting lessons, insuring quality of lessons for dissemination and dissemination of the lessons such that implementation occurs. This method allows for Lessons Learned System evaluation and design with respect to the handling of lessons.
