Maturity Assessment of Knowledge Management, Strategy, and Implementation in Indonesia's Leading Hospital Group
Knowledge Management (KM) is important because of the many benefits it can bring to organizations such as better productivity, quality, profitability, and innovation. Knowledge Management in the Hospital and healthcare industry is essential because of its role as an important business. KM assessment is needed to find out which strategy is most suitable. Indonesia's Leading Hospital Group Network is the subject of this paper. This network is one of the largest Group Hospital Networks in Indonesia. The GWI of 40 Hospital Units varies from one another. To verify assumptions, an assessment is carried out to determine the current performance of KM, its gaps, and what strategies are needed to reach full maturity. The assessment was carried out using a mixture of quantitative and qualitative methods collected from employees working in the QNT directorate of the Hospital Group. Quantitative data was collected and analyzed using the APO KM Maturity Framework and qualitative data by interviewing employees using a standard set of questions. The study confirmed that the organization has not yet reached full maturity and is still in the refinement stage with a score of 161 out of 210. The challenges faced are the massive geography of the Hospital Unit, the culture and ability of different employees from each hospital, frequent changes, unclear career paths, and the absence of a special KM department. To improve the performance of KM Hospital Group, the author has provided 10 strategies and business solutions for the Hospital Group that focus on People, Process, Technology, and Governance. In addition to these 10 strategies, the author has created 38 practical KM strategies that other Hospital Groups in their organization must have implemented.
