The Marketform Group Ltd - Capability Profiling & Performance Review
"As an organisation that takes pride in its service to customers but also needing to demonstrate the skills and competencies of our employees to the Financial Services Authority, the ability to define and measure these factors was becoming increasingly important. We chose McLaren Solutions because their modules enabled us to implement an effective method of delivering a tailored competence based performance development and review process in an easy to use web-based package. Throughout the project, McLaren's support and knowledge have been invaluable."
"The flexibility of the McLaren Solutions modules has allowed us to start by developing our competency framework and then move into a full competency-based appraisal system in a matter of weeks rather than months."
Terry Webb - Group Training & Development Director
Marketform embarked on a programme of work to enhance management capability and instil the concept of generic and technical competencies throughout the organisation. This was driven by an internal need to manage and measure people performance more effectively and improve management performance reporting and development plans to satisfy the Training and Competence requirements of the Financial Services Authority (FSA)
In order to achieve this in a sensible and effective way, they needed to ensure that they focused on both individual and team development. In order to deliver this efficiently and cost-effectively, they used the Capability Profiler and Performance Reviewer from McLaren Solutions.

Suffolk County Council are redesigning their approach to pay so that progression through the grade is based on performance and the individual's ability to meet job standards, rather than length of service.
The County Council has decided to link pay to performance through the use of competencies, as they feel that a more flexible and performance-based reward system better supports the improvement agenda within the council.
