The topic addressed in this paper is that of the relationship between knowledge and organizations. Referring simultaneously to a research work about fraud by a transportation system, and to a management research tradition, the author accounts for the direct (knowledge production) and indirect (evolution or stability of the management system) results of the research work. The perspective developed stresses the meta-level of knowledge, and highlights the main features of the management system that determine the meta-level of knowledge: tools and place. Finally, the paper opens up to epistemological questions about the role of researchers and proposes as a guideline Hatchuel's epistemological project.
