Competence Based Assessment and Progression

Customer

Oil and Gas Multinational

The Task

Assess the competence of the asset planning community in preparation for the new systems and software implementation.

Our Approach

We developed the elements of competence for a planning engineer and the level of competence required for each role being assessed, given the demands of the new system. We then assessed both the management and technical skills of the individuals in the team and presented an integrated view of both individuals and the team as a whole. This allowed the client to move staff and put in place a training programme that reduced the risk of the entire project.

The Result

By understanding the competence levels in the team, the client was able to put a training programme in place that focused on the right areas, move staff into more appropriate positions given the demands of the new systems and, finally, put in place a team leader to manage the technical development of the re-structures team.
