NASA Aeronautics: Knowledge Management and Digital Transformation in Partnership

Knowledge management and digital transformation share common ground. Both maintain an interest in driving mission success, maximizing information access, and leveraging digital technologies to enhance efficiency and effectiveness. As NASA's Aeronautics Research Mission Directorate explores emerging digital capabilities, we are applying KM principles to strengthen our approach. Bringing digital transformation to knowledge management practices also helps us to reinvent antiquated processes and take advantage of new opportunities. This session identifies areas of complementarity between knowledge management and digital transformation, highlights ways KM practitioners can contribute to digital transformation activities in any organization, and provides some examples from NASA Aeronautics' experience in both.
