CoP Defined
Communities of Practice:
“Communities of Practice are groups of people who share a concern, a set of problems, or a passion about a topic, and who deepen their knowledge and expertise in this area by interacting on an ongoing basis.” – Etienne Wenger

Obstacles
Dr. Gabriel Szulanski led a groundbreaking study to determine why best practices do not transfer from one part of an enterprise to another. The
results can be seen within NAVSUP activities:
Most of us might think that “turf protection” is the leading cause of failure to adopt best practices, but ignorance is the real culprit.
In most organizations neither the “source” nor the “recipient” knew someone else had the knowledge they required or that someone had an interest in their knowledge and best practice.
Lack of resources: time, money, and the practical detail to implement best practices is the second barrier.
Lack of any relationship, personal ties or credibility is missing between geographically dispersed managers.
Transferring best practices takes time. It took an average 27 months for a best practice to go from one part of a large organization to another. Yet, the results are remarkable!

The Potential Gains are Enormous
Texas Instruments recently avoided the cost of building a $500 million wafer fabrication plant by leveraging internal knowledge and best practices.
Chevron has saved millions through sharing of Best practices across its refineries and other business units. This could be done with the FISC’s.
APQC awarded Eastman Kodak the Gold Award for Benchmarking a few years back for its global study of internal best practices in maintenance. Kodak not only improved uptime, quality, and customer satisfaction, but it also saved at least $12 million annually by implementing best practices.
Chew, Bresnaban, and Clark (HBR, 1992) reported performance differences of 3 to 1 between the best and worst of 42 almost identical food plants within a single company. The profitability of the top plant was more than 80 percent of the mean, and the bottom plant 40 percent below; yet, their situations were virtually the same.
Moving all plants to just the, average level of performance would result in an increased firm profitability of 20 percent.
