Abstract
The rapid development of Kuala Lumpur has seen numerous new and high-rise buildings introducing Building Automation System (BAS). Whilst effective application of Knowledge Management (KM) within BAS is the pre-requisite for the achievement of optimum BAS performance, there has been little research undertaken to investigate if have been the case. This paper presents a research undertaken to get a view of how KM applies in BAS in six (6) selected case-study buildings in Kuala Lumpur, all operating with the 'one-system' M&E workstation control BAS. The emergent findings positively suggest that adequate KM approaches were employed within their BAS management processes, but further studies would be necessary to determine the extent of their application and effectiveness.
