A Practical Guide:

How to Unlock Value in  Engineering Lessons Learned

Engineers often experience frustration when attempting to capture, manage, and implement Lessons Learned. From difficulty with standards compliance to developing a functioning strategy to manage knowledge that works, Lessons Learned can pose challenges. Added difficulty occurs when teams rely on passive knowledge management approaches such as document libraries and databases. This often leads to challenges such as stored knowledge that is: 

  • difficult to find
  • lacking in relevance to re-user or is hard to understand
  • not up-to-date or is incomplete 
  • lacking an end-user's trust or is difficult to apply

This guide addresses the common challenges faced by engineers and provides insight on changing the paradigm to implement a successful Lessons Learned plan of approach that works.
