What is a Competency Management System?

A Competency Management System (CMS) is a tool designed to enhance both workforce competency and organisational efficiency. It helps in identifying, developing and aligning employee skills with business goals. By using competency management software, organisations can ensure their teams have the necessary skills to tackle current and future challenges, leading to improved performance and productivity.

A robust CMS can map out the skills required for various roles, such as pinpointing skill gaps and facilitate targeted training programs. This approach not only streamlines talent development, but also supports career growth and prepares employees for greater responsibilities. By following competency based performance management, team leaders can guide employees with tasks suitable to their skillset and goals.

How does Competency Management work?

Competency management begins with identifying the skills and abilities required for various roles within your organisation. This process starts by mapping out these abilities and setting clear performance expectations.

Next, employee skills are assessed against these benchmarks to identify any gaps. If so, targeted training and development programs are then implemented to address these gaps and enhance skills. Alternatively, external hires may be considered to fill these roles. Regular performance reviews are imperative to ensure that development is tracked and that accurate data is consistently fed into the CMS.

By integrating continuous feedback into competency-based performance management, organisations can foster a culture of constant improvement and responsiveness.
