Support systems are critical to receiving real value from the program
Our experience shows that roll-out and program support may present more hazards than program design. Without integrated support systems, value can disappear, administration can become a drain on company resources and the program can actually become a disincentive to employees. As a part of our consulting, we have designed the specific support systems that produce success.

Meaningful task analysis is at the core of an effective skill-based pay program
Effective skill programs define employee competencies in very specific terms. Our methodology begins with defining the task inventory performed by employees in each job as discrete, observable behaviors. From this rigorous task analysis we extract observable skills that can be measured, learned and certified. The success of all other facets of the program relies on the thoroughness and accuracy of the task and skill analysis. Our Complete, Consistent, Fair and Relevant™ skill assessment process brings exactly these attributes to your program.

Skill-based pay can provide extremely cost-effective training
The information that skill-based pay provides can align training activities with critical skills. Our Strategic Training Alignment™ processes can create a low cost, comprehensive training program as a part of skill-based pay. It can move your company from topic-based training to strategic, skill-based training. The results include absolute alignment of your training with corporate strategy and substantial reduction of training expenditures.

Mine the information that skill-based pay provides
The task and skill information captured by our SkillForge™ software gives clients the ability to create new management tools. For example, when tasks are combined with information about criticality and time card information, they can be used to making staffing-level and allocation decisions using our Strategic Resource Allocation™ process.

Daniel Follette, Inc. provides complete processes for designing, implementing and managing each part of the program. Our processes include program manuals that guide all participants through their roles. Our methodology is supported by a comprehensive data-management system. Daniel Follette systems have been proven in major assignments helping clients with program design, skills definition, certification methods, training support design, computerized management systems, communications and implementation.
