To support the research model studies were considered De Sordi (2008) that presents a model of knowledge management containing defined stages, and studies of Choi and Lee (2003) related style of knowledge management.

As a result the study finds that innovative tools to bring to light practices used by organizations in each stage of knowledge management, other words, routine actions that allow the maximum possible utilization of knowledge relevant to the internal context of the organization. Thus, the study points to the contributions from both academia as details some intrinsic aspects addressed by theorists who describe steps to the process of knowledge management, and for the professional context serve as a parameter to organizations who feel the need to better manage knowledge in their surrounding environment and have no examples for this effective management.
