Abstract
The Knowledge-Based Enterprise Modelling framework is based on the redefined concept of the knowledge-based enterprise. The Strategic Alignment Framework by Henderson and Venkatraman is modified and used for description of Knowledge-based Enterprise structure. The Enterprise Knowledge Base together with explicitly defined knowledge management activity is treated as the major component of the knowledge-based enterprise. Four domains of the knowledge-based enterprise are abstracted from the enterprise architecture point of view. The process-oriented Knowledge-based Enterprise Model is presented by modifying the Porter’s Value Chain Model (VCM). The Knowledge management layer is identified within the modified VCM. Two types of control loops are identified between layers of the Knowledge-Based Enterprise Model.
