Tap the knowledge reserve

摘要

Effectively tapping the currently uncaptured knowledge and insights residing in employees can be the key to more competitive opportunity generation. In the hyper-competitive climate of mergers, acquisitions and a never-ending drive to accelerate exploration and development, exploration and production (E&P) groups face daunting challenges. To grow and remain competitive they need, more than ever, to draw on all their available resources. The challenge of continually growing and returning value to shareholders necessitates a highly competitive acquisitions effort at all levels. That, in turn, calls for the ability to have as realtime and detailed a view as possible of relevant changes occurring to both targets and competitors. Such a detailed view allows companies to identify and advance emerging opportunities earlier, act on deals before the competition, and walk away from flawed ones sooner - mitigating the number of times they're left asking themselves "How come we didn't know that?"
