Organizational learning NA Architecture Architecture in relation to special subjects Human factors and architecture Nowadays, knowledge sharing (KS) and knowledge management (KM) is an essential element to be implemented in an organization. Knowledge has to be managed in order to make it accessible to others within an organization. Most knowledge exists in the minds of an individual until it is encoded into a medium as to enable other people in the organization to understand the information. One of the challenges in retaining knowledge is when an employee leaves an organization for retirement, resignation or for other various reasons. This can affect the effectiveness on the implementation of Explicit Knowledge (EK) in an organization. Hence, it is necessary for knowledge management to be implemented as to being able to retain the knowledge of the coming and going of employees. There are factors that contribute to the effectiveness on the implementation of EK. Thus, the aim of this research is to investigate the factors that contribute to the effectiveness on the implementation of EK in Quantity Surveying firms. Meanwhile, the objectives of this study are to identify the factors that contribute to the effectiveness of the implementation of Explicit Knowledge, to identify the challenges faced by QS in transferring Tacit Knowledge (TK) into Explicit Knowledge and to propose strategies to enhance the implementation of Explicit Knowledge in QS Firms.
