Abstract. Current trends among panies imply that sources of petencies are spread across anisational and anisational units works anisations of different kinds. This paper explores the challenges for design petence management systems (CMS) raised by anisational collaboration in work of panies. We take the point of departure from the co-workers’ abilitly to explore and manage petence. The research question to be answered is: How can work perspective petence management systems empower co-workers? The paper presents findings from an on-going research project aiming at identifying design implications of petence management system (nCMS), where the role of the individual is valued crucial for its ess. We argue that there is a need to take a critical stand mon assumptions of CMS as a tool for anisational strategic work - instead a nCMS should empower the individual member of anization.
Keywords. Competence management systems, anisational collaboration, anisations, design implications, empowerment, nCMS.

There is an on-going debate on human resource and its management that says that human capability should not only be seen as a resource among others, but as the main source of

One current trend in anisations is a divergence concerning the contribution of human capabilities to the ess or failure of anisation. According to Zülch & Becker (2006) the importance of the human resources for the long-term ess of pany is obvious, but at the same time these resources
