Diamonds are forever.

Knowledge is not.

How HICO VAULT helps preserving corporate wisdom in times of 

Geneve Schwan, Ben Gnaedig (HICO)

We are facing a critical challenge that isn't confined to the DACH region but is mirrored globally: Over the next decade, more than 30%

of our employees will retire.

This isn't just about workforce numbers; it's about the potential loss of invaluable experience and insights they've accumulated over the years.

Alarmingly, 30% of implicit knowledge may not be passed on. This is the unwritten expertise essential to our operations—knowledge that's not captured in manuals or databases.

At the same time, our employees spend 19% of their working time searching for information. This significant inefficiency underscores the

urgent need for knowledge retention mechanisms.

But how do we ... think them? How do we build them? How do you? And what are the prerequisites?

This whitepaper – bare with us – repeats these questions, and even raises a few more! But don't worry – it has some answers as well.
