PROJECT MANAGEMENT INFORMATION SYSTEMS


CARE is a rich organization in information resources, our program
activities produce every day a wealth of information on
every aspect of our work. We are by essence an organization
that creates vast amounts of data, information and knowledge.
We are an organization rich in methodologies, practices, implementation
strategies, work methods and experiences. But at the
same time we are a poor organization in terms of managing
these vast wealth of resources.
Every day CARE projects discover and apply new methods, practices
and experiences in their work. All this knowledge stays isolated
from the rest of the organization and only in few opportunities
or events we have a chance to share this new knowledge
among ourselves, not as result of a plan but as a result of individual
initiatives. This lack of proper sharing results in a duplication
of efforts and costs that should be avoided. For example; a
project in Ecuador needs to know more about nutrition methodologies
for premature infants, a project in Ethiopia has invested
and implemented a methodology to solve the very same problem.
How can the organization connect these two projects?, How
can we connect the knowledge seeker and the knowledge holder
and establish means for both to share and learn from each
other?
