ICW Collaborative Competencies & Skills Framework |
The adoption and integration of systemic approaches for collaborative operations highlights the need to consider a range of competences beyond specific technical capabilities. The attached profiles have been developed to provide organisations with a guide to identifying and developing these competences.The basic elements have been defined within the structure of the Maturity Assessment Programme (MAP) in order to align individual competences with those aspects of organisational maturity e.g.:
It is recognised that roles and responsibilities will vary by organisation and function, and that in some circumstances these may be specifically delegated or assigned in the case of specific relationships. As such the generic profile of competences only includes high level considerations of function and is defined within the following categories: Operatives (Working Level): Members within collaborative business relationships where they will not necessarily need detailed knowledge of the systems and processes that underpin such arrangements but where their individual behaviours may impact outcomes. Members of Joint Management Teams (JMTs) (Delivery Level): Those individuals who are members of management teams, internal or jointly within collaborative business relationships. Commercial and Supply Chain Team Members (Delivery & Practitioner Level subject to complexity): Those individuals responsible for developing procurement and contracting strategies where collaborative business relationships has been identified as key to delivering desired outcomes. Business Development Team Members (Delivery & Practitioner Level subject to complexity): Those individuals responsible for marketing, developing, capture/sales, and implementing engagement strategies for collaborative programmes.
