Understanding the Workforce Competency Match Process

To perform a workforce competency match, you run the Match process (WA_MATCH), which compares the current workforce competency inventory with a given competency strategy. You review and analyze the process results with a series of inquiry pages to assess the match and gap between the two. The overall procedure for assessing the competency match is similar to the procedure for performing a value allocation:

  1. Prepare your competency strategy.

  2. Define the strategy with the Competency Strategy setup component.

  3. Set up a model and scenario.

  4. Define the match parameters with the Competency Strategy Model setup page.

  5. Use the Competency Strategy process page to run the Match process.

  6. Review the results of the competency strategy scenario.

The following diagram illustrates this overall process:

Defining a Competency Strategy for the Match Process

When you define a competency strategy for the Match process, you use the same pages in the Competency Strategy component that you use to set up competency strategy for the Value Allocation process. These pages are documented in the topic titled "Managing Competency Strategies and Values."

Defining a Competency Strategy Model for the Match Process

To define a competency strategy model for the Match process, you follow the same steps as for the Value Allocation process:

  1. Set up the model identification using the Models setup page.

  2. Complete the model definition using the Competency Strategy Model page.

This process is documented in the topic titled "Managing Competency Strategies and Values."
