The DA-BAFS conducted a benchmarking activity with the @DA-Philippine Carabao Center (PCC) and the Philippine Rice Research Institute (PhilRice) last April 10-11, 2025. This initiative aims to gather insights from these government agencies who are recognized as models because of their well established Knowledge Management Systems (KMS), to guide the development and operationalization of the Bureau’s own KMS in the coming years. The information-sharing sessions focused on the agencies’ KM frameworks, strategies, and best practices, with the end goal of identifying effective strategies for knowledge capture, sharing, and utilization techniques; learning about successful KM tools and technologies, organizational structures and processes facilitating KM implementation, and gathering insights on how to foster a knowledge-sharing culture. The output of this immersion is expected to provide valuable inputs for DA-BAFS’ divisions, enabling the organization to develop a robust and contextually relevant KMS workplan.###
