Knowledge Management - the sysetmatic identification, organisation, storage and retrieval of an organisation�s informational assets - is becoming an important functional area in a growing number of leading organisations.

The Knowledge Management Specialists Remuneration Survey was launched in 2004 and the inaugural report was published in the autumn 2004.

The survey examines the remuneration of two groups of Knowledge Management professionals:

• Knowledge Organisation specialists, whose roles are concerned with the identification of the organisation�s information needs (both existing knowledge and information to be acquired), about how such information is stored, preserved and shared and working with users to ensure that they are able to most effectively access the information they require.
• Knowledge Solutions specialists, who provide the more complex information solutions in situations demanding a significant amount of expert analysis and research. Knowledge Solutions specialists create packaged insights, analysis and information for use by client-facing professionals.

All analyses are conducted according to job-level. There are 5 job-levels in this survey.

In addition to the main national analysis of all jobs, the survey reports feature:

• Base Salary, Total Cash, Total Remuneration statistics
• Separate analysis for Knowledge Organisation specialists and Knowledge Solutions specialists
• Regional analyses
• Analysis by market sector
• Major components of the benefits package

Other analyses are described in the full survey specification, available upon request.

Reports are produced twice yearly and are available only to participants.

Analyses are available in electronic format. Each Participant receives electronic output showing how their own practice compares to the market.

Details of our job-matching, analysis and presentation methodologies and techniques are available upon request.

Individual subscriber practices are not identifiable in our surveys.
