Knowledge management is currently becoming a standard issue in our society and specifically in our firms. Knowledge management tools enable companies to take more appropriate decisions, to better capitalize their know-how, and to improve co-workers' training. Such tools are also used to enhance companies' performances as well as the quality of their products. It is indeed possible to exploit the possibilities offered by those tools in order to reduce the time needed to develop new products and therefore grab more opportunities of new markets. However complex it may seem for small structures to implement such tools, it is definitely possible to use them.
