摘要：Knowledge sharing between agency, in this instance a State Government division, and customer is a form of market sensing which can provide the agency with information to make anticipatory assumptions about the market. Knowledge sharing within an agency and between an agency and customer, aligns the agency’s orientation to continually focus on the customer’s issues and in this way acts as an antecedent to adopting a market orientation. Knowledge management as discussed in this case focuses on direct or face to face communication and is considered in conjunction with industry Best Practice aspirations by the government agency. This case provides valuable insight into knowledge management as it is used by a State Government agency in Australia and the findings are applicable in other government situations internationally.
