A Model for Knowledge Management in Software Industry

In Micro and Small Companies for Software Development (MSCSD) of Mexico, the knowledge is generated in each software project. So, it is possible to transform tacit knowledge into explicit, to have some strategy and data storage device. Note that, when the knowledge exists only in the brains of developers there is the disadvantage that, when a developer leaves the organization, knowledge is lost. Therefore, it is possible to transform the tacit knowledge into explicit, if exist some strategy and data storage device. Developers need to generate and storage knowledge in any device and format to process, storage and exploit. In this paper, it has been called knowledge asset to an idea or solution processes or software development activities, which may be embodied as text, images, audio or video.
