Case Study: Naval Building Organization identifies competency gaps and improves workforce planning with Orgvue

Naval Building Organization uncovers 30% competency concentration with Orgvue

The naval building organization, an engineering firm, faced major industry shifts and needed to identify critical skills gaps in its workforce to ensure it had the right talent. They turned to the vendor Orgvue, using its platform for competency analysis, to move beyond their immature spreadsheet model and uncover deficiencies in their competency management and planning methodology.

Using Orgvue, the organization gathered and aligned its competency data to assess the workforce. This revealed significant imbalances, including that 30% of competencies were concentrated in a niche area and 30% of roles did not fit their competency requirements. The solution established new processes for assigning competencies and built in-house capability for proactive decision-making. The VP of Human Resources stated that Orgvue not only uncovered serious gaps but equipped the team with the right processes to stay on top of the skills market.
