We developed a process-knowledge allocation model (PKA) of allocating company available knowledge on company new product development process (NPD) knowledge requirements. Our model is based on two optimization functions. We are searching for best alignment of employee knowledge structure on NPD process knowledge requirements. Second, we are splitting NPD process activities and measuring process structural indexes to find even better knowledge alignment. This PKA model is useful in case of new business opportunity without having time to re-educate employees. That means that the structure of proposed project activities among NPD process and the structure of project team depend on optimization of available and required knowledge structure at a specific time.
