In traditional management, the role of measurement is to provide the management with information about whether the set goals are being met and the standardized operating methods being followed, and thereby to enable timely and just monitoring of execution. The measurement objects are tangible, namely, financial or material resources and liabilities of the organization. In contrast, from the knowledge-based view, the role of organizational measurement is to enable knowledge workers to develop their own working methods and conditions, and to inform the management of how to support employees better in creating, sharing and integrating knowledge for productive ends. The focus of measurement shifts from material or tangible resources to knowledge.

Is substantially a quantitative tool. It may rely on direct comparison of performance before and subsequent to the initiation and establishment of a KM strategy. The organization may choose to measure of its performance in market competitiveness and acceptance, it may look at the contribution of the KM strategy to financial benefits and viability. It can also measure contributions to and the growth in the volume of explicit knowledge content stored and used by staff. Some knowledge managers may regard the increase in the resources attached to the project as a measure of the acceptance and hence the understanding of the value of KM to their organization.

Refers to the use of KR metrics and narratives to support MKR and, in particular, to assess performance. For KR measurement, the aim is not to assign a financial value to KR but to create a set of metrics (or indicators) based around the individual KR elements within each KR component (e.g. customers’ satisfaction within the relational KR). Many metrics are context-specific and therefore there are no widely accepted standards available to help readers understand the meaning of the reported metrics. Therefore, metrics must be accompanied by narratives which explain the metrics’ meaning and their relationships with oganisational context and performance.
