| Abstract | The Oregon State University chapter of American Institute of Astronautics and Aeronautics competed in the Design/Build/Fly competition for the second time during the 2013/2014 school year. This chapter began at Oregon State in 2012 and still lacks an organized management system for the Design/Build/Fly team that could allow OSU to be more successful at competition. The team currently consists of four senior project teams and multiple club members, which creates many communication challenges. In the past students have not received clear defined projects and have left the group. This has left a very small group to complete the project before competition. The team wants to implement a system that assists the chapter with organizing documents, communicating with all members, delegating projects, and collaborating within different groups. Each of these are challenges that the chapter currently faces. The rapid turnover rate within the chapter is one of the contributing factors to these issues and must be addressed. The purpose of this thesis is to determine important characteristics of a knowledge management system that would improve the team’s organization and recommend methods for implementing these characteristics. |
