- The internal market of knowledge producers and users functions optimally.
- Crucial knowledge is successfully converted into fixed capital in the form of processes, structures and patents.
- Knowledge is used successfully in the development of innovative products, processes and services.
- Individual learning experiences (both negative and positive) are turned into knowledge and made available to the staff, who can make use of them. A system of lessons learned and best practices is possible here.
- Any risks regarding critical knowledge are evaluated well in advance.
Strategy and knowledge policy are well aligned.
