Competency-Based Resource Planning

Match the right skills to every project

Projects need a wide range of skills - and people in the same role may bring very different competencies. EG Silverbucket lets you manage skills across your organisation and integrate them directly into resourcing, so you always build the best possible team.

How it works

Four ways competencies power your resourcing

From building your skill taxonomy to assigning the perfect candidate - EG Silverbucket handles every step.

Step 1: Create a skill map

Define and structure your organisation's competency hierarchy. Add as many skill categories and levels as you need - fully configurable to match how your business works.

Step 2: Manage employee competencies

Supervisors or employees can record current skill levels aligned with company policy. Personal target levels can also be set per skill - making career development structured and visible over time.

Step 3: Use competencies in resourcing

Add competency requirements to unallocated roles and use filters to instantly surface candidates who match your project's exact skill needs.

Step 4: Competency analysis for personal development

Analyse skill distribution across resource allocations to identify gaps or surpluses. Proactively support training initiatives, upskilling programmes, and strategic recruitment - before shortages affect project delivery.

Assign Dialog

Find the perfect candidate in seconds

The Assign Dialog takes the guesswork out of team building. It automatically identifies the best candidates based on availability, required competencies, and role specifications - so you spend less time reviewing profiles and more time delivering projects.

Every candidate is scored from 0 to 100 across key matching criteria, with colour-coded results to help you decide at a glance.
