CONSTRUCTION OF A3byCOMP
According to Dalziel et al. (1996) , cited by Pereira et al. (2008) and Medina (2014), there are 4 elements that constitute the proposed model:
a) analysis, diagnosis and strategic planning; b) identification and standardisation of competencies; c) competency-based skills building and training; and d) assessment and certification of competencies.

ANALYSIS, DIAGNOSIS AND STRATEGIC PLANNING
A3byCOMP allows each position to be associated with the tasks to be performed (functional profile), as well as the ideal competencies to do so (competency profile), each of which are weighted in accordance with their relative weighting for each position.

IDENTIFICATION AND STANDARDISATION OF
COMPETENCIES
A3byCOMP enables the identification and standardisation of competencies by providing the user with three databases: competencies, behaviours and tasks.

COMPETENCY-BASED SKILLS BUILDING AND TRAINING
A3byCOMP makes possible to identify the person's suitability for the position they currently hold or any other they may hold (career or succession plan), and their functional and competency profile, individually identifying the competencies and tasks that can be improved with regard to how demanding they are, as established through an assessment process carried out for that purpose.
In accordance with Gallego (2012), comparing the worker's profile with the position's requirements through an assessment process reveals the need for specific development and training for each area, process or person.

COMPETENCY ASSESSMENT AND CERTIFICATION
A3byComp aids the process of assessing and certifying competencies by combining quantitative and qualitative techniques: a) with regard to the former, it uses the widely-used survey model and enables easy comparison of data; b) with regard to the latter, 360º feedback is used, which allows data to be recorded from different viewpoints (self-assessment, assessment by colleagues and by superiors.

CONCLUSIONS
A3byComp not only makes it possible to meet organisations' needs regarding definition of competencies, associated behaviours, determining professional profiles and establishing an assessment methodology related to all these aspects. It also makes it easier to align the competency-based management system with the personal care model based on enhancing their quality of life.
It will be of great interest, in later studies, to examine in greater depth A3byComp users' perception of its usefulness and its actual applicability within organisations,
