The Skill Analysis Model caters to the growing need of
organizations to optimize and manage skills to get a competitive edge.
Technology organizations today while making headway in globalizing their
functions are often disadvantaged with their talent strategy, which
lacks a comprehensive skill tracking and estimating system. The Skill
Analysis Model arises from this gap among organizations in tracking the
required hard skills and in assessing their employees\' hard skills,
domain skills and competencies. It addresses the need for a
well-chalked out futuristic strategy with a continuous human capital
capability management and skill monitoring system to enable global
centers achieve their goals.
Designed to address the need among
organizations to define their product and global centre roadmaps as well
as to understand the skills required in future for various products,
the Skill Analysis Model covers one of the key aspects of global talent
planning. The model features as a reliable system that regularly
estimates hard skills, domain skills and competencies of employees
across centers of an organization giving a fair view of the skills
distribution both in terms of employee and from the product requirement
perspective. It is driven by a robust methodology whereby data is
collected from surveys designed specifically for various levels of
organizational hierarch. It is equipped with data from a thorough
analysis of hard skills, domain skills and competencies. Apart from
drawing an estimate of skill distribution by product family, job level,
reporting structure and function at different global centers, it also
highlights gaps at different global centers and variations in expertise
level within the same skill set thereby facilitating a foresighted
talent strategy and training program.
With the complexity of
a workforce distributed across various experience and functional levels
across global centers, the skill analysis model enables a quick talent
ramp up at the headquarter location and the global centers. It helps
save on people cost, improve efficiency and implement required
trainings. The peer group analysis gives a very precise and detailed
picture of how an employee rates in comparison to his peer. The profile
builder comprising the ideal skill requirement, competency level and
team composition data gives a ready estimate of the product-wise skills
requirement, plays a crucial role in global centre and talent roadmap
and assists in talent planning and team composition. We are in the
midst of a global transformation with changes affecting various
industries as well as the global labor force. At such a time an
organization can derive multi-pronged benefits from deploying the Skill
Analysis Model.
