Methodology: The thesis is based on abductive perspective where empirical and theoretical material has been mixed to create a foundation for the analysis. Theoretical perspectives: Theories concerning knowledge management and research and development have primarily been used. These have been complemented with material about team structures and incentive systems. Empirical foundation: The empirical material is based on semi structured, mostly qualitative interviews and strictly quantitative inquiries performed at Industrial Hose within the Trelleborg group. Conclusions: We conclude that knowledge management supports research and development activities. A model which shows how the different theoretical fields can be connected is constructed. The model can be used either as a theoretical explanatory model or as a helping illustration in the practical knowledge management aimed at research and development. The thesis also includes practical advice to Industrial Hose. (Less)
