               10.3 DDD is a manufacturer of chemical compounds for medical research. It is made
                     up of a number of divisions which focus on specialised parts of the production
                     process.

                     While each division is run autonomously, DDD wishes to implement a
                     knowledge management strategy to establish best practice within the
                     organisation as a whole. This will be  achieved through the creation of an
                     intranet that can be accessed by all of DDD’s divisions.


                     Which TWO of the following options correctly identifies the first two
                     stages of implementing a knowledge management strategy within DDD?


                     A     Explain to staff the importance of sharing best practice through the new
                           intranet

                     B     Ensure that DDD’s directors agree to support the development of the new
                           intranet


                     C     Create an appropriate database structure to store the best practice
                           information

                     D     Acquire the hardware and software needed to run the proposed intranet


                     E     Populate the database and ensure it is kept up to date
