Competency and skills audit
Map the skills your people have against the skills your organisation needs.
A skills audit maps the skills your people have against the skills your organisation needs now and in the future. It supports training plans, restructures and the introduction of new technology.
Who it is for: HR, L&D teams and operations leaders.
Timeline: 1–4 weeks, and can be extended depending on the scope of the assessment.
When to use it
- Before building a training plan.
- During a restructure or change in strategy.
- When introducing new technology or ways of working.
What we measure
- Current skills by role: We assess the current skills of each role through self-assessment and manager review.
- Required skills: We define the skills each role needs, now and over the next two to three years.
- Gaps and strengths: We identify the largest gaps and the strengths you can build on.
- Critical skill risks: We highlight skills that depend on only a few people, which create risk if they leave.
How we assess
- Self and manager assessment
- Skills interviews
- Role analysis
What you receive
- A skills profile for each role, compared with what the role needs
- A view of the biggest skill gaps by team and level
- Recommendations for training, hiring and development
