Why do we need a Human Resources Capabilities Model?
The value of business capabilities is immense as they help bridge the gap between business and IT, help understand the essence of what a business does, and align development efforts to strategic priorities, which allows the evolution and enhancement of capabilities.
Ideally, your firm should have a structured and well-defined enterprise business capability model, and HR capabilities should be an integral part of that enterprise model. And furthermore, for the capability model to the actionable should be decomposed to a slightly granular level of capabilities (Level 3 or 4).
One of the core functions of an enterprise is Human Resources. The HR value stream has become ever more critical in today’s highly competitive market for rare talent. CIOPages Human Resources Business Capability map intends to capture the detailed and nuanced perspective of what HR does. It includes the nuts and bolts’ functional capabilities and emerging and value-add functions/capabilities.
The Human Resources Capabilities Model will help provide a jumpstart to envision a future state, conduct gap analysis, identify capabilities that are needed/improved, and help focus efforts on capabilities that matter!

But our Company is unique – will it fit us?
Of course, every business is slightly different regarding particular HR capabilities and how they work. However, while there may be divergence at the edges, there is a lot of convergence at the core. In most enterprises, you need to prospect, recruit, hire, pay, manage, and grow your employees – the differences may be in the relative emphasis on the vital value streams and the absence or presence of specific capabilities and competencies based on your unique needs.
Last but not least, we don’t expect our Human Resources Capability Model (or any other model in fact) to fit you 100%. We hope you to take this as a straw model and a springboard to achieving the level of customization and specificity you desire.
We offer professional services to help to tailor the Human Resources or the Human Capital Management capability map to your needs and capture your firm’s unique essence. Contact Us for Advisory Service details.
When should we buy an HR Capabilities Model?
Anytime is a good time! However, there are always triggers that may necessitate purchasing an HR Capability Model.
- Strategic review and revamp of HR Strategy and Operations.
- Re-architecture or replacement of HR Systems
- Re-engineering the HR processes.
- HR capabilities as a part of an enterprise model
But what if we have Human Resources Capabilities Model already?
In that case, you can go with it, or if you require validation and cross-reference, you will still find our HR model valuable. After all, the price is less than the one hour of time spent on the combined brainpower assembled in the room.
What is my ROI?
The Value of Time Spent:
Typically, it takes a team of 4-5 to draft an HR Capabilities Model:
- Product Manager
- Business Architect
- Enterprise Architect
Human Resource Functional Experts – 2 or 3 to represent the broad spectrum of HR functional areas.
Now you can multiply the average hourly cost of the team and the hours spent on defining an HR capability map, and you’ll get the story.
Opportunity Cost:
In addition to the time spent and the associated costs of drafting routine HR capabilities, you also have an opportunity cost.
A pre-built and customizable HR capabilities list will allow you to quickly add/delete/modify the HR Business Capabilities base set. In turn, you will have the luxury of spending the balance of your quality time conceptualizing and crafting unique and specific Capabilities. These new/refined ideas should capture your company’s essence and its HR practices, principles, and perspectives.
Of course, let’s not forget the “Day Job” each of the SMEs (subject matter experts) could be doing.
Acceleration:
Instead of spending countless hours stretched across weeks or months, you can have a baseline of human capital management capabilities in a couple of sittings. That helps you expedite and accelerate the HR transformation planning and roadmap development.

Product FAQs:
Can I see a Sample Deliverable?
We are sorry, but we cannot send or show sample deliverables. There are two reasons: A) The deliverables are our intellectual property, and we cannot share the same. B) While you may be a genuine buyer, our experience in the past has not been great with too many browsers and not many buyers. We believe the depth of the information in the product description and the snippets we provide are sufficient to understand the scope and quality of our products.
When can I access my deliverables?
We process each transaction manually and hence, processing a deliverable may take anywhere from a few minutes to up to a day. The reason is to ensure appropriate licensing and also validating the deliverables.
Where can I access my deliverables?
Your best bet is to log in to the portal and download the products from the included links. The links do not expire.
Are there any restrictions on Downloads?
Yes. You can only download the products three times. We believe that is sufficient for any genuine usage situation. Of course, once you download, you can save electronic copies to your computer or a cloud drive.
Can I share or sell the deliverables with anyone?
You can share the deliverables within a company for proper use. You cannot share the deliverables outside your company. Selling or giving away free is prohibited, as well.
Can we talk to you on the phone?
Not generally. Compared to our professional services fee, the price of our products is a fraction of what we charge for custom work. Hence, our business model does not support pre-sales support.
Do you offer orientation or support to understand and use your deliverables?
Yes, for a separate fee. You can hire our consultants for remote help and in some cases for onsite assistance. Please Contact Us.
