Kunskapsöverföring – en bortprioriterad arbetsuppgift? / Knowledge transfer – an unprioritized work task?

The purpose of this case study is to research the project members' experience regarding knowledge transfer. As a researching method a qualitative study was conducted by applying thematic analysis. A sample consisting of nine project members at a municipality in Sweden were chosen. including project office manager, project manager and project participants. The result indicates that no one is working on knowledge transfer in a systematic way and more time is requested for reflection and participation. The knowledge transfer that does exist, is carried out mainly through the project members’ initiative. It therefor indicates that ultimately knowledge transfer isn’t prioritized and hasn’t been stated by management. In addition, the result shows that there are thoughts about further developing the work on knowledge transfer but where there are no concrete thoughts yet on how the work should be concreteized. Other findings that emerged from the report were that the municipality has two different control models for project management and that project culture is a subject which could be interesting for further studies.
