本研究探討物件導向系統發展知識管理的促成要素，並嘗試探討物件導向系統發展知識其可能來源管道與分類，從而發展出物件導向系統知識分享的機制，藉此將專案中相關人員及組織的內顯知識外顯化。歸納文獻探討，一個知識管理機制應該包括：（1）一個完善的知識管理作業流程，（2）一個健全的組織結構，（3）配合獎勵與績效評量制度及，（4）有效而正面的領導與文化。透過這樣的機制讓組織有效的收集及彙整組織內的可再用的知識，且成員可以簡單容易地擷取系統開發工具與方法的相關知識、傳播與交換組織或專案團隊人員的訊息，有效率的促進成員間及成員與產品間的協調與溝通，進而降低系統發展成本。

　本研究經過統整將知識管理以「作業流程」、「企業文化」、「科技運用」、「組織制度」、「組織結構」、「領導風格」等六大構面來探討。其中「作業流程」又可分為「知識的記錄」、「知識的重整」、「知識的展現」與「知識的啟發」四個工作項目；「企業文化」方面則提出「鼓勵創新與自我實現」、「信任和共識」及「願意接受採用新知識的挑戰」三個重要方向；「科技運用」探討了在「知識作業流程」與「社群機制和績效評量」二方面的科技支援現況；「組織制度」方面針對「知識分享」、「績效評量」、「獎勵制度」與「培育訓練」提出相關做法；並提出物件導向系統發展之「組織結構」；「領導風格」方面則提出「運用溝通以建立互信」、「關切所需並主動協助」、「重視創新與開放環境」及「廣納建言及自我更新」等四項主要內容。
