Abstract
In the Taylorian tradition of business management, distrust towards the knowing subject can be observed. However knowledge is an interpretation process entirely carried by actors. Organizational dimension can esclusively be found in the collective process of action. Knowing is interpreting action. Knowledge is a process and not a state. The codes at times -and wrongly- called “explicit knowledge” are signs produced about a certain action process, to tool actors’ knowledge processes. “Systems” (Information Systems, Management Systems) are contextual, contingent to a certain type of situation. To desigtn them it is necessary to start from a definition of the action processes they are supposed to support.
