Abstract: Abstract This paper introduces the idea of knowledge supply network (KSN). Being an extension of the conception of supply chain management familiar to operations managers, knowledge supply network provides a most natural framework for operations management to contribute to the issues of knowledge management and intellectual capital, while retaining its tradition of practicality. This paper has three parts: (i) set up the idea of KSN, and clarify the focus of the paper; (ii) through case examples, illustrate the nature and structure of KSN; and (iii) point out the connection of KSN to business strategy, operations, information systems, and knowledge management.
