ShareNet is probably the most important KM System at Siemens - the only one the Siemens CEO mentioned in the last year's press conference: http://w4.siemens.de/en2/html/press/pk_eb/pierer_rede.html
ShareNet is no doubt an important system, and is useful to point to as an example of (open)ACS capabilities, but I just stumbled across this:
http://biz.yahoo.com/prnews/010724/sftu102.html
"Siemens Standardizes on Interwoven Content Infrastructure"
"Interwoven will allow Siemens to apply an assortment of different system configurations with a single Content Infrastructure that will enable us to advance e-Business processes, creating a major productivity boost,'' said Albert Goller, corporate vice president, Siemens Center of E-Excellence."
"In April, Interwoven announced its new Content Infrastructure product suite that includes products for content aggregation, content collaboration, content management, content intelligence and content distribution. For more information, please see http://www.interwoven.com/company/features/ci/."
So... It looks like any new initiatives at Siemens will be using Interwoven as a basic building-block. Standardizing initiatives across the entire corporation does make sense (though one could question the efficacy of the tool that they've picked.)
Anyway, just giving you a heads-up, in case you find yourself discussing siemens with someone...
