INDUSTRY PROFILE:

Prior to 1960’s domestic requirements of construction equipment were entirely met by

imports. Domestic production began in 1964 with manufacturing of bulldozers, dumpers,

graders, scrapers etc by Bharat Earth Movers Ltd.,(BEML) a PSU unit under ministry of defense.

In the private sector, the Hindustan motors established its earthmoving equipment division in

1969 at Tiruvallur, near Chennai, in 1974, L&T began to manufacture hydraulic excavators

under license from proclaim, France. In 1980 Telcon began production of hydraulic excavators

under license from Hitachi, Japan and in 1981. Escorts JCB started production of backhoe

loaders under license from JCB,UB, Escorts JCB was taken over by JC excavators ltd. U.K in

2003 and is now called JCB India ltd. Volvo and Terex vectra are the newest entrants to the

market. Volvo has set up their manufacturing unit in Bangalore.

India’s construction equipment consists of the following key categories;

o Earth moving equipment; it’s the largest segment and includes products like excavators,

backhoe, and loaders bulldozers.

o Construction equipment; includes key equipment like concrete mixer, hot mix plant, road

making machine concrete bracers, stone crushers etc.,

o Materials handling equipment; it include mobile cranes, forklifts, trucks cranes, tower

cranes and conveyors etc.,

o Construction vehicles; these include dumpers, trippers, tankers, trailers etc.,

The country’s economy registered a very impressive GDP growth of 9%.The focus on

infrastructure development was a key driver of this growth.

The market for construction equipment registered a growth of around 35% over the

previous financial year. Most of the international Construction equipment companies

already exist in India.

Introduction to Topic

Competency is a characteristic of an employee that contributes to successful job performance and the achievement of organizational results. These include Knowledge skills and ability plus other characteristics such as values, motivation, initiative, and self control.

Competency Mapping is a process of identifying key competencies for an organization and/or a job and incorporating those competencies throughout the various processes (i.e. job evaluation, training, recruitment) of the organization. To ensure we are both on the same page, we would define a competency as a behavior (i.e. communication, leadership) rather than a skill or ability.

The steps involved in competency mapping with an end result of job evaluation include the following:

Step 1: Conduct a job analysis by asking incumbents to complete a position information questionnaire (PIQ). This can be provided for incumbents to complete, or researcher can conduct one-on-one interviews using the PIQ as a guide. A sample PIQ that we use when conducting this step with our clients was provided to this client. The primary goal is to gather from incumbents what they feel are the key behaviors necessary to perform their respective jobs.

Step2: Using the results of the job analysis, researcher develops a competency based job description. This was developed after carefully analyzing the input from the represented group of incumbents and converting it to standard competencies.

Step3 : With a competency based job description, Next researcher begins mapping the competencies throughout clients human resources processes. The competencies of the respective job description become client’s factors for assessment on the performance evaluation. Using competencies will help, guide client to perform more objective evaluations based on displayed or not displayed behaviors.

SDMCET Dept of Management Studies, Dharwad Page 31

Page 32: Competency Mapping

Step4: Taking the competency mapping one step further, researcher can use the results of client’s evaluation to identify in what competencies individuals need additional development or training. This will help researcher focus clients training needs on the goals of the position and company and help your employees develop toward the ultimate success of the organization.

Literature Review

Managing employees is a major job, so those in Human Resources must be equal to the task. Ten or twenty years ago, Human Resources personnel were rarely seen. Instead they worked behind the scenes to ensure personnel records were in order and employee benefits were being properly administered, but the job stopped there. Today's Human Resources personnel don't only handle small administrative tasks. They are responsible for staffing major corporations.

Definition

“A competency is defined as a behavior or set of behaviors that describes excellent performance in a particular work context (e.g., job, role or group of jobs, function, or whole organization). These characteristics are applied more and more by organizations because they provide significant help with key problems such as:

Clarifying workforce standards and expectations Aligning individuals, teams, and managers with the organization's business strategies Creating empowerment, accountability, and alignment of coach, team member, and

employer in performance development Developing equitable, focused appraisal and compensation decisions”.

History of competencies

A team of educationists lead by Benjamin Bloom in the USA in mid fifties laid the foundation for identifying educational objectives and there by defining the knowledge attitudes

SDMCET Dept of Management Studies, Dharwad Page 32

Page 33: Competency Mapping

and skills needed to be developed in education .The task force lead by Bloom took several years to make an exhaustive classification of the educational objectives that were grouped under the cognitive domain. Though they have not used the term competencies, they have differentiated and drew attention to cognitive domain, affective domain and active or psycho meter domain in classifying the educational objectives. These are in simple terms known later as knowledge, attitudes and skills. David Mc Cleland, he famous Harvard psychologist, has pioneered the competency movement across the world.

His classic books on “TALENT AND SOCIETY”, ”ACHIVEMENT MOTIVE”, ”THE ACHIEVING SOCIEY”, “MOTIVATING ECONOMIC ACHIEVEMENT & POWER”, “The Inner Experience ”brought out several new dimensions of the competencies .These competencies exposed by McClelland dealt with the affective domain in Bloom’s terminology. The turning point for competency movement is the article published in American psychologist in 1973 by McClelland wherein he presented data that traditional achievement and intelligence score may not be able to predict job success, and what is required is to profile the exact competencies

required to perform a given job effectively and measure them using variety of tests .This article combined with the work done by Douglas Brey and his associates at AT&T in the US where in they presented evidence that competencies can be assessed through assessment centers and on the job success can be predicted to some extent by the same ,has laid foundation for popularization of competency movement.

Latter McBer, a consulting firm founded by David Mc Cleland and his associates David Berlew, have specialized in mapping the competencies of entrepreneurs and managers across the world. They even developed a new and yet simple methodology called the Behavior Event Interviewing(BEI) to map the competencies.

Thus AT&T Studies of Formative years in Business indicated the predictability of future success. Mc Cleland’s studies in early seventies indicated the limitations of Intelligence and Academic performance data. With increased recognition of the limitations performance appraisal in predicting future performance potential appraisal got focused.

The setting up an assessment centre was an integral part of the HRD plan given to L&T by the IIMA professors as early as in 1975.L&T did competency mapping and could not start assessment centers until much later as it was not perceived as a priority area.

Competency assessment is the assessment of the extent to which a given individual or a set of individuals possess these competencies required by a given role or set of roles or levels of roles. Assessment centers use multiple methods and multiple assessors to assess the competencies of a given individual or a group of individuals.

Competency Mapping

Competency mapping has become the latest buzzword for many organizations as more and more of them are applying this concept for training, career development and selection of their employees. The change in the ideology of the organizations can be attributed to the change in the work culture, environment, as well as growing competition among companies

Competency mapping enables the organization to link selection training and development and compensation to business strategy. It focuses performance management on what is critical for success of the organization and makes recruitment and selection more efficient. The process of competency mapping also helps the organization to understand what constitutes superior performance and provides a framework for superior performance. It enables to establish measurements that make a difference in performance levels.

It is a process through which one assesses and determines one’s strengths as an individual worker and in some cases, as part of an organization. It generally examines two areas: emotional intelligence or emotional quotient (EQ), and strengths of the individual in areas like team structure, leadership, and decision-making. Large organizations frequently employ some form of competency mapping to understand how to most effectively employ the competencies of strengths of workers. They may also use competency mapping to analyze the combination of strengths in different workers to produce the most effective teams and the highest quality work.

Competencies in current scenario

We all have competencies. These are the sum of our experiences and the knowledge, skills, values and attitudes we have acquired during our life time.

In the workplace we use our competencies to perform a variety of behavior and activities, which in turn produce outputs (products and services) that we provide to others. It is the quality of these outputs and the reactions of those who receive them that lead to results with positive or negative or neutral consequences for the organization. The people who work there and its suppliers, shareholders, clients and customers.

The current and future success of an enterprise is a reflection of the efficiency of the senior management team, their vision and leadership and the combined knowledge and the skills of the organization’s workforce. This means that the identification of critical management and specialist competencies that will enable enterprises to meet the demands of the future has assumed an even more important place as a key responsibility of senior business executives.

Competence is regarded as an attribute based phenomenon. Human competency is described as constituted by a specific set of attributes that workers use to accomplish their work. Attributes used in accomplishing work are not primarily context free, but are situational or context dependent i.e. the attributes used in particular work their context dependence through the workers way of experience

That work. People’s way of work is more fundamental to their competence than the attributes themselves.

Individuals have skills, knowledge, benefit from intuition and can develop expertise. Collective competencies start to develop with individuals and small group learning by doing, rather than with top management engineered grand designs. Competence develops partly as an individual action, learning process.

Types of competencies

1. Behavioral or Personal competency :

Underlying performance characteristics of individuals which they bring to work. It includes interpersonal, leadership, analytical and achievement orientation attributes.

2. Threshold and performance competency:

Boyatzis (1982) made the distinction between the two. The former does not make any distinction between high and low performance but are the basic competencies to do a job. Performance competencies make this distinction.

3. Differentiating competency:

They define behavioiural characteristics which high performance displays as distinct from those characterizing less efficient role- the performance dimensions of their jobs.

(Personnel Management Practice, M. Armstrong, 1996, page 191)

4. Central and surface competencies :

SDMCET Dept of Management Studies, Dharwad Page 37

Page 38: Competency Mapping

It may be mentioned that competencies exist at both the surface as also at the core personality level. The surface level competencies of knowledge and skills are visible in one’s behavior or performance and can be developed with appropriate training and development. However, the core motives and trait competencies reside deep within us and are difficult to understand measure and develop. Since these are large in number, one needs to focus on specific motives and traits with a view to developing them in a cost effective manner. However, self concept lies somewhere between surface and core competencies. The competencies lying deep within can be developed over a longer period of time by appropriate job placement of the employee which will offer him opportunities to develop these competencies for future senior roles. It has often been observed that one’s best performance is driven by core competencies rather than task related skills and knowledge, which goes to show that selection on the basis of qualifications or skills alone will not ensure a candidate’s best performance.

5. Key competencies :

Key Competencies are used to describe the elements of behavior that are important for all employees. They support organization values, desired culture, and performance expectations in such areas as customer service, continuous improvements.

6. Team competency

Team competencies are an indication of the specific capabilities and characteristics of a work unit they are important in organizations that have embraced team based work system and can provide a clear focus for team assessment and development.

7. Functional competency

Functional competencies describe more specialized Knowledge and skills For roles such as project manager customer service representative and /or Manufacturing engineer.

For functional competencies it is important to keep the descriptors from getting so technically detailed that lose their practical purpose. Functional competencies can be a repository for specific Knowledge used and learned by many to deliver excellent results.

Competency Characteristics

People who excel at their jobs demonstrate behaviors that distinguish them from their peers. Directing these behaviors are competencies which are defined as underlying personal characteristics that differentiate outstanding performance from average performance in a given job, role, organization, or culture. The different types of competencies can be depicted as different levels of an iceberg as illustrated below .The upper levels are easy to see , but they do not topically predict or determine outstanding performance. It is the dipper level of competencies (traits & motives) that direct people’s behavior, thus their performance

The following are the competency characteristics:

1. Skill - The ability to perform a certain physical or mental task. It is visible, can be observed, can be measured and can be learned and trained.

(Ex.- Business planning)

2. Knowledge -Information a person has in specific content areas like skills it is also visible, can be observed, can be measured and can be learned and trained.(Example - In-depth understanding of a technical area )

3. Traits - Physical characteristics and consistent responses to a situation or information. It is physical and behavioral attributes a person has.(Example - Being a good listener )

4. Self-concept - A person’s attitudes, values or self –image. It cannot be learned or trained.(Example - viewing oneself as a teacher & coach)

5. Motives - The things a person consistently thinks about or wants that cause actions. It is affiliation oriented and achievement motivated.

(Example - wanting to continuously achieve & make things better)

SDMCET Dept of Management Studies, Dharwad Page 39

Page 40: Competency Mapping

Competency is largely a product of learning. A cumulative result of the whole history of transaction with the environment, no matter how the environment is, no matter how they were motivated.

Competency Modeling

A competency model is a set of success factors, often called competencies that include the key behaviors required for excellent performance in a particular role. Excellent performers on-the-job demonstrate these behaviors much more consistently than average or poor performers. These characteristics generally follow the 80-20 rule in that they include the key behaviors that primarily drive excellent performance. They are generally presented with a definition and key behavioral

Types of competency model

One-size-first-all-competency model

Multiple job competency model

The single job competency model

One-size-first-all-competency model

This model uses data obtained from existing job description and job analysis

Multiple job competency model

There are three steps in this model

Step 1: Competencies required for organizational function will be identified.

Step 2: These competencies are classified in to technical, social, marketing, management, finance and general.

Step3: Combination of competencies will be grouped to draw a particular role like Finance manager, Technical manager likewise.

The single job competency model

SDMCET Dept of Management Studies, Dharwad Page 40

Page 41: Competency Mapping

This is a traditional time tested & commonly used method .In this method most importance jobs or skills possessed by the employee are identified .Next data will be obtained from past records, on job performance of the employee ,individual discussion with employee etc. Data so obtained will be used to build competency model for that particular position.

Importance of competency modeling

The model is important because it provides a "road map" for the range of behaviors that produce excellent performance. It helps:

Companies "raise the bar" of performance expectations; Teams and individuals align their behavior with key organizational strategies; and each

employee understands how to achieve expected performance standards.

Benefits of using Competency based Selection System:

It provides a complete picture of job requirement .A competency Model provides a complete picture of what it takes to perform the work. Thus ensuring the interviewer look for characteristics that are needed to do the job well.

Increases the likelihood of hiring people who will succeed. Interviewer can judge who lacks a critical set of skills knowledge and characteristics and focus on those with strong potential.

Minimizing investment in people who do not meet expectation .Hiring a wrong person has a tremendous impact in the productivity and profitability of the organization.

Benefits of using Competency based Training and Development system:

Competency mapping help people better assess their current capabilities and difference .The behavior they need to develop their effectiveness. It enables people to focus on the skills, knowledge and characteristics that affect job performance.

Competency mapping ensures training and development. Competency model provides for training and development opportunities and ensure that they are the one that are essential to the organization.

SDMCET Dept of Management Studies, Dharwad Page 41

Page 42: Competency Mapping

Competency mapping ensures that both the boss or coach and the direct report have a shared picture of what it takes to succeed in a job, along with examples of behavior that can be used as the basis for constructive development discussion.

Benefits of using Competency based Performance Appraisal system:

Competency mapping ensures agreement on performance criteria. What is accomplished and what is not accomplished.

Competency mapping integrated with performance appraisal ensures a balance between what gets done and how it gets done.

Based on Competency mapping. Performance appraisal is done as individual performance as per set standard is gauged. It gives a more accurate way of assessing people.

By identifying critical behavior performance appraisal gets more accurate

Benefits of using Competency based Succession Planning System:

Succession planning integrates various system of HRM. It helps decide who is ready, why who will be ready soon accompanied by person’s development needs and recommended actions to close the gap.

Statement of problem

Competency mapping consists of breaking down any role / job into its constituent tasks or activities and identifying the competencies (technical, managerial, behavioral, conceptual knowledge, attitudes, skills, etc.) needed to perform the same effectively. This research deals with identifying the competencies of Operators and matching them with the required competencies of the company. Hence the problem statement is defined as “Mapping the competencies of operators at Telco Construction Equipment Company.”

Objectives of the study

1. To build a competency model with generally adopted standards2. To map the competencies of operators3. To build the gap analysis between required and present competencies of operators4. To identify needs for training

Scope of the study

1. The study mainly covers the operators from wheel shop, Mini shop and Midi shop of Telco Dharwad

2. The study covers only a part of the universe as the sample i.e. only 60 operators were chosen out of more than 182 for surveying purposes.

3. The need for this aspect in the organization is mainly to develop and identifying key competencies for the company and the jobs and functions of the operator

Need of Study

In Telcon, Study of competency mapping was needed because to increase the effectiveness of training and professional development programs by linking them to the success criteria (i.e., behavioral standards of excellence) & establish expectations for performance excellence, resulting in a systematic approach to professional development, improved job satisfaction & Provide common, organization-wide standards for career levels that enable employees to move across business boundaries.

RESEARCH METHODOLOGY

1. Tools for data collection:

Primary data – It was collected by the interviewing the operators of Wheel shop, Mini

shop, Midi shop with the help of questionnaire.

Secondary data- It was collected by the companies various records and other possible

resources like magazines and company website.

Sampling technique

The selecting small portion for a study of the universe with a view to draw a conclusion

about the universe is known as ‘sampling’. Sampling method is a strategy used in the process of

obtaining information about a large population by examining only a part of it.

The sampling method used was Judgmental non probability random Sampling for the

purpose of selecting 60 samples of employees from a population of 182.

Universe for the purpose of study consisted of the 60 employees belonging to the

operator position who are working in the Wheel shop, Mini shop, and Midi shop. For which

competency have been mapped. All the employees in the above mentioned areas were part of

study.

Limitations of the Study

• Time available for the research was limited.

• Study is limited in getting the information from management and employees through

questionnaires.

• There might be a bias in providing information from some percentage of respondents

• Information was not revealed which was confidential in nature

Steps under taken for competency mapping

a. Job description of operators was collected and based on that competency model is

developed.

b. Data about possessed skills by the operators was collected with the help of

questionnaire and through the interaction with the supervisors and HR department

c. Then collected the expected competencies level from HR department.Then the actual competencies were compared to the expected competencies mapped on the graph

d. Then interpretation is made on them

DATA ANALYSIS

Questionnaire here comprised of question relating to 60 employees and those competencies were grouped under different sets namely: General competencies and Job related competencies. Supervisors rated operator’s competencies on the scale of five points or the respective rating factor given. Later the rating factors were reduced to three main categories and analysis of the data was done for the different sets mentioned above. The categories were the competency level that is below requirement, that just meets the requirements and the level that exceeds the requirement.

initial training.

head it will increases co ordination among them

CONCLUSION

SDMCET Dept of Management Studies, Dharwad Page 61

Page 62: Competency Mapping

The research shows that the company meets the need of various competencies that are required

for the job in their organization to some extent but is not up to the mark. Though competency

mapping is done the company is not yet able to keep up the required competency level. The

company has defined certain competencies that are required for the job in their organization and

those competencies are Ability to work on Machine and ensure targeted output, Participation in

TPM activities / Presentations, Ability to do self inspection, Ability to analyze for any minor

defects in the machine and take corrective actions etc. These competencies that are defined by

the organization form the organizational competency model.

Based on these competencies they recruit their employees, provide them necessary training and

also appraise their performance. Since the organizations employee pool is not large it is able to

manage human resource but yet it has to meet the required level of skill and knowledge so that

each employee carries out his job more effectively. By assessing the competency level of

employees it’s clear that there exists a gap between the competencies of employees and the

required level because certain percentage of employees still fall below the required competency

level. By defining those competencies properly and providing training, organization can get the

right pool of employees and also appraise them rightly based on that. It’s been observed from the

research study that more number of employees are exceeds and meets the expected competencies

and there is less number of employees who are below the company required Competency level .
