Paradigm Systems Berhad

Knowledge has been described as “The capacity for effective action” and in a globally competitive business environment, about the only key differentiator is the ability to leverage on existing knowledge and create new knowledge. Hence, the need for Knowledge Management (KM) has become very important for an organisation to maintain or develop a competitive advantage. Technology, particularly software, has become the most important KM enabler. NeuLogic® is one such KM enabler.

NeuLogic® is a comprehensive Knowledge Management (KM) technology tool. It harnesses the power of Information Technology and that coupled with the creativity of our developers brings to the desktop knowledge management engines that would enhance productivity and improve knowledge retention. Enterprises will benefit extensively by tapping into their vast pool of tacit and explicit knowledge and retain as much as possible and make them available for the benefit of the organisation.

NeuLogic® provides the following benefits to an organisation:

Streamlines knowledge access and retrieval and puts content in context.
Accelerates knowledge discovery by connecting users with the right knowledge at the right time.
Enhances knowledge organisation, allowing organisations to maximise the value of the knowledge.
Captures and protects knowledge assets, reduces duplication of work, and enables organisations to identify knowledge gaps.
Offers the tools for employees to collaborate in order to seek and share knowledge.
Allows for the implementation of Taxonomies, to bring to the employee and all those offered access to the knowledge base, the inherent benefits of a strategically organised knowledge repository.

NeuLogic® provides the following modules and its functions are described below:
