The need to support a software architect's day-to-day activities through efficient tool has been highlighted both in research and industry. However, managing enterprises' Architectural Knowledge (AK) scenarios such as decision making, what-if analysis, collaboration during the execution of large industrial projects is still challenge. In this paper, we propose architecture an AK management framework architects manage AK. components including SyncPipes rule engine allow consolidate projects' data from disparate sources define domain-specific rules address challenges inconsistency context-sensitive recommendations, tracking artifacts within projects. technical details for realizing are also presented. proposed successfully implemented part project currently being evaluated different domains.
