ACKNOWLEGEMENT

These last two months of summer training had been nothing short of a journey- a journey of
great learning experiences. I got my first glimpse of corporate culture and also how the Human
Resources department fulfils its role in an organization. My internship at Honeywell Automation
India Ltd. has been possible because of many people, who throughout my project have been
constant sources of encouragement, support and guidance.

First of all, I would like to express my earnest gratitude and sincere thanks towards my project
guide, Mr. Abhay Singh (Manager HR) for his timely and valuable guidance and support offered
to me throughout the course of this project work.

I whole heartedly thank Mr. Kaushik Mitter (Director HR), who was always ready with a helping
hand and quick tips, for providing me with imperative insights and feedback throughout the
project.

I offer my sincere gratitude to the stakeholders, Director ISC- India and Leaders of all the SBUs
as without their immense help and unfailing support in giving the necessary information of
processes, this project would not have been possible.

I would also like to express my sincere gratitude to all the members of the Honeywell
Automation India Ltd., Pune and Human Resources team for their support and guidance in the
summer internship program.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY

Any company trying to compete must figure out a way to engage the mind
of every employee
Jack Welch, former CEO General Electric
One common element grounds organizations ability to advance through its environment:
People.
People are more than ever a source of critical skill and knowledge, as well as sustainable
competitive advantage. People want to invest their skills and knowledge on behalf of their
employers. Yet few organizations are fully tapping that source and achieving the results that
come through full investment of the workforce.
Identification of suitable roles within Integrated Supply Chain and mapping there respective
responsibility, is what this report is all about.
The project tiltle is: Identification of Unique roles within ISC-India and developing a
standardized job descriptions and Skill matrix for respective positions.
The project synopsis is: Rolling out the framework for ISC India Talent Agenda; Developing an
inventory of skill matrix (basic technical competency framework), framework forintegrating
talent across ISC India. Common norms for deployment and mobiity across SBGs within ISC.
The project thus involved understanding the organisation structure of Honeywell and ISC, such
that various demading roles within ISC can be identified. The methodology followed included,
conducting focused group discussions with HR managers, Stakeholders (consisting of Heads of
respective SBUs) and Director of ISC. Another part of the project focused on the development
of job description of the respective identified roles. The responsibilties including essential and
marginal functions demanded by the unique roles where identified. A standard template for job
description was developed and the identified responsibilties, communication with internal and
external customers, accoutablity in terms of budget and revenue, Knowledge Skills and Abilities
(KSA), Key Performance Indicators (KPI), Key Resut Area (KRA), Average Performance Score
(APS), Average Competency Score(ACS) and Overall Performance Rating (OPR) were used to
develop the Job analysis. This job analysis was further documented and a standardized job
description format was developed which was futher validated by the stakeholders and ISC
Director.
Hence this project helped the organisation in developing a standardized format of job
description template and the job description for the identified unique roles within ISC- India.

ACS participates in the Automation and Control market, which is ~$200B. ACS is the fastest-
growing and now largest segment.
Its 65,000 employees strength is spread across seven businesses and 1,000 facility in every
corner of the world. Its a truly global organization as more than 57% of the revenue comes
from outside US. Developed Markets such as Western Europe and Asia account for 44% and it is
steadily expanding its growth opportunities in emerging markets, which currently stands at
13%. Emerging Markets are areas such as Eastern Europe, Russia and North Africa.
ACS focuses on three main vertical markets Homes, Buildings and Industrial. The
Macroeconomic trends that drive these markets- Safety, Security, Comfort, Convenience,
Productivity, and Energy Efficiency- are very favorable. Apart from that they also focus on
capitalizing key trends such as Energy Costs, Green Movement, Legislation, Maintenance Costs,
etc.
ACS provides customers controls for heating, ventilating, and air conditioning, security systems,
fire alarm systems, and energy management solutions. A pioneer in automation control, ACS
also monitors and controls processes to improve productivity of complex industrial plants
around the world. From home thermostats to large commercial building management systems,
Honeywell ACS is a global leader. ACS brings many strengths to the $200B industry, including
strong customer relationships, a large installed base, which means it has a large existing
customer base that already has HON products/solutions onsite. This is important because if its
products are already installed it allows them to drive future sales opportunities (service
contracts, add-on solutions, etc.) and makes it much more difficult for competitors to come in.
Other ACS strengths also include our diversified portfolio, broad distribution channels, global
brand recognition, and of course, there passion and commitment to service.

ACS is comprised of seven strategic business units and we categorize these business into
Products or Solutions businesses.So,
What is the difference between a Solutions and Products business?
A Products business sell just thatproducts. Now, a Solutions business also offers products but
then provides the ability to create broader end-to-end solutions that address a specific business
issue. So, it links various products together into a complete solution or provide services that
solve larger business problems, which allows customers to improve processes, increase
productivity and enhance their business performance.

12

Sixty percent of the Automation and Control Solutions (ACS) business groups products and
services are related to energy efficiency. For example, building owners can reduce their heating
and cooling demand by 15 to 20 percent by using Honeywells programmable thermostats and
energy management systems. Industrial site managers can decrease energy use up to 35
percent by utilizing Honeywells industrial solutions that reduce and monitor consumption and
emissions. We estimate the global economy could operate on 10 to 25 percent less energy by
using our existing ACS technologiespretty impressive!
OTHER ENERGY BACKGROUND
Fluctuating oil prices, and rising costs for natural gas and electricity, have added to the hardship
for organizations with fixed budgets. At the same time, there is a growing awareness across the
country about environmental impact and the effects of global warming. And many
organizations are looking for ways to serve as models of energy conservation.
However, finding the right technologies to cut emissions and help ease economic strains can be
extremely difficult, especially with the recent inundation of green products. Thats where
Honeywell comes in. We have the experience and expertise to pinpoint the mix of building
retrofits, service and renewable energy that will deliver the greatest return on investment.
The history of innovation with an eye on the bottom line continues with offerings like the
Renewable Energy Scorecard. This first-of-its-kind selection tool analyzes a number of location-
specific criteria e.g., resource availability, local utility rates, and heating and cooling loads
to help steer our customers toward the renewable technology with the most significant
environmental and financial drivers.
ACS is also working with organizations to conserve energy, optimize building operations and
leverage renewable energy sources. We were one of four energy services companies selected
at the outset of the Clinton Climate Initiative to help the worlds largest cities reduce energy
consumption and carbon emissions.

15
Intellectual Property
20,000 HON researchers and engineers in 48 R&D facilities.
33,000+ patents / pending patent applications.
ACS is the Wireless technology leader with 300 patents.
Innovation has delivered half of ACSs growth+$3B over seven years Huge pipeline of new
ACS products.

New products and services are the lifeblood of ACSs growth and a major differentiator.
Environmental and Combustion Controls business launched a solar water heater and our
Security Group introduced My Keypad App, an application for the Apple iPhone that allows

JOB DESCRIPTION

Job descriptions are written statements that describe the:
duties,
responsibilities,
most important contributions and outcomes needed from a position,
required qualifications of candidates, and
reporting relationship and coworkers of a particular job.
Job descriptions are based on objective information obtained through job analysis, an
understanding of the competencies and skills required to accomplish needed tasks, and the
needs of the organization to produce work.
They clearly identify and spell out the responsibilities of a specific job. Job descriptions also
include information about working conditions, tools, equipment used, knowledge and skills
needed, and relationships with other positions.
The best job descriptions are living, breathing documents that are updated as responsibilities
change. They do not limit employees, but rather, cause them to stretch their experience, grow
their skills, and develop their ability to contribute within their organization.
Methodology followed in developing Job Descriptions
I followed the following steps to develop the Job description template.
Gathering the appropriate people (stakeholders, leaders, head and directors of
the respective SBUs) for the task. The manager to whom the position will report takes
the lead for reviewing and validating the job description, but other employees who are
performing similar jobs can contribute to its development, too.
A job analysis was performed by collecting as much data as possible to develop a job
description. The job analysis may included:
the job responsibilities of current employees, Internet research and sample job
descriptions online or offline highlighting similar jobs,
an analysis of the work duties, tasks, and responsibilities that need to be accomplished
by the employee filling the position,
research and sharing with other companies that have similar jobs, and
articulation of the most important outcomes or contributions needed from the position.

21
Writing the job description. The company had a format for job descriptions of some band
4 and band 3 emloyees with Human Resources. It was used as referance to develop the final
format congruent with other job descriptions across the company.
The normal components of the job description included:
Overall position description with general areas of responsibility listed,
Essential functions of the job described with a couple of examples of each,
Required knowledge, skills, and abilities,
Required education and experience,
A description of the physical demands, and
A description of the work environment.

DEVELOPING A SKILL INVENTORY FRAMEWORK

A skill inventory is a set or collection containing information on knowledge, skills, abilities, and
experiences of current employees. It aims to identify the skills an individual is supposed to use
or could use, in the day to day activities, identify the ones they would like to acquire in the
future, and highlight patterns of skills. Skills are developed through paid and unpaid work
experiences, volunteerism, hobbies, classroom experiences, training and through everyday
living.

28
Design Principles of a Skill Matrix
Threshold questions:
Initial ideas must address the following questions satisfactorily before a full
proposal is invited:
does it address a demonstrable skills need?
is it appropriate for financial/monetory funding? That is, will it support the
contribution employees and stakeholders make in addressing skills needs?
Will it provide broad benefit to more than one SBU/SBG and/or to a
significant proportion of the relevant provision?
Should costs be covered from existing resource?
are there better options or other institutions we should discuss the
approach with?
does it fit the areas demanded by the identified position/role?
Full project descriptions:
Full proposals, to be developed in discussion during the focused group discussions
and face to face interview, should give at least the following items of basic
information and address the challenge questions set out below:
Basic information:
aims
planned activity
timetable, Leadership Standardized Work (LSW)including key
milestones
clear commitments from all partners, including signature(s) of Principal(s)
(Strategic Development funds applications: cover sheet.
Challenge questions:
what are you trying to achieve and why? What are your aims?

DEVELOPING A STANDARD COMPETENCY FRAMEWORK

A competency framework defines the knowledge, skills, and attributes needed for people
within an organization. Each individual role will have its own set of competencies needed to
perform the job effectively. To develop this framework, we need to have an in-depth
understanding of the roles within the organisation. To do this, I followed following different
approaches:

31
Use a pre-set list of common, standard competencies, and then customize it to the
specific needs of the organization.
Create a general organizational framework, and use it as the basis for other frameworks
as needed.
Developing a competency framework calls for a lot of research and it shuld adress the need. it's
important to make it relevant to the people who'll be using it and so they can take ownership
of it.
Design Principles of a Competency Framework
1. Focused Group Discussions: Involve the people doing the work These frameworks
should not be developed solely by HR people, who don't always know what each job
actually involves. Nor should they be left to managers, who don't always understand
exactly what each member of their staff does every day. To understand a role fully, you
have to go to the source the person doing the job as well as getting a variety of other
inputs into what makes someone successful in that job.
2. Communicate People tend to get nervous about performance issues. We should
communicate the purpose of developing the framework, how it will be created, and
how we'll use it.
3. Use of relevant competencies Ensuring that the competencies included apply to all
roles covered by the framework. If irrelevant competencies are included, people will
probably have a hard time relating to the framework in general.
Developing the Framework
There were four main steps in the competency framework development process. Each steps
had key actions that encouraged people to accept and use the final product.
Step One: Preparation
Defining the purpose a well defined purpose ease the task of creating the framework.
How you plan to use it will impact whom you involve in preparing it, and how you
determine its scope. For example, a framework for filling a job vacancy will be very
specific, whereas a framework for evaluating compensation will need to cover a wide
range of roles.
Create a competency framework team Include people from all areas of your business
that will use the framework. Where possible, aim to represent the diversity of your
organization. It's also important to think about long-term needs, so that you can keep
the framework updated and relevant.

32
Step Two: Collect Information
This is the main part of the framework. Generally, the better the data you collect, the more
accurate your framework will be. For this reason, it's a good idea to consider which techniques
you'll use to collect information about the roles, and the work involved in each one. You may
want to use the following:
Observe Watch people while they're performing their roles. This is especially useful
for jobs that involve hands-on labor that you can physically observe.
Interview people Talk to every person individually, choose a sample of people to
interview, or conduct a group interview. You may also want to interview the supervisor
of the job you're assessing. This helps you learn what a wide variety of people believe is
needed for the role's success.
Create a questionnaire A survey is an efficient way to gather data. Spend time making
sure you ask the right questions, and consider the issues of reliability and validity. If you
prefer, there are standardized job analysis questionnaires you can buy, rather than
attempting to create your own.
Analyze the work Which behaviors are used to perform the jobs covered by the
framework? You may want to consider the following:
Business plans, strategies, and objectives.
Organizational principles.
Job descriptions.
Regulatory or other compliance issues.
Predictions for the future of the organization or industry.
Customer and supplier requirements.
Job analysis that includes a variety of techniques and considerations will give you the
most comprehensive and accurate results. If you create a framework for the entire
organization, make sure you use a sample of roles from across the company. This will
help you capture the widest range of competencies that are still relevant to the whole
business.
As you gather information about each role, record what you learn in separate behavioral
statements. For example, if you learn that Paul from accounting is involved in
bookkeeping, you might break that down into these behavioral statements: handles
petty cash, maintains floats, pays vendors according to policy, and analyzes cash books
each month. You might find that other roles also have similar tasks and therefore
bookkeeping will be a competency within that framework.
When you move on to Step Three, you'll be organizing the information into larger
competencies, so it helps if you can analyze and group your raw data effectively.

33
Step Three: Building the Framework
This stage involved grouping all of the behaviors and skill sets into competencies.:
Group the statements Asking team members to read through the behavior
statements, and group them into piles. The goal was to have three or four piles at first
for instance, manual skills, decision-making and judgment skills, and interpersonal skills.
Create subgroups Break down each of the larger piles into subcategories of related
behaviors. Typically, there were three or four subgroupings for each larger category.
This provided the basic structure of the competency framework.
Refine the subgroups For each of the larger categories, the subgroups were defined
even further. Questions like why and how the behaviors relate, or don't relate, to one
another were raised and the groupings were revised as necessary.
Indentify and name the competencies The team was asked to identify a specific
competency to represent each of the smaller subgroups of behaviors.
Groupings and subgroupings for general management competencies:
Supervising and leading teams.
Provide ongoing direction and support to staff.
Take initiative to provide direction.
Communicate direction to staff.
Monitor performance of staff.
Motivate staff.
Develop succession plan.
Ensure that company standards are met.
Recruiting and staffing.
Prepare job descriptions and role specifications.
Participate in selection interviews.
Identify individuals' training needs.
Implement disciplinary and grievance procedures.
Ensure that legal obligations are met.
Develop staff contracts.
Develop salary scales and compensation packages.
Develop personnel management procedures.
Make sure staff resources meet organizational needs.
Training and development.
Deliver training to junior staff.
Deliver training to senior staff.
Identify training needs.
Support personal development.
Develop training materials and methodology.
Managing projects/programs.
Prepare detailed operational plans.

34
Manage financial and human resources.
Monitor overall performance against objectives.
Write reports, project proposals, and amendments.
Understand external funding environment.
Develop project/program strategy.
The main objective of the framework was to develop a compensation or performance
review system hence each competency was measured by leveling-dividing the related
behaviors into measurement scales according to complexity, responsibility, scope, or
other relevant criteria.
Validate and revise the competencies as necessary For each item, these questions
were raised:
Is this behavior demonstrated by people who perform the work most
effectively? In other words, are people who don't demonstrate this behavior
ineffective in the role?
Is this behavior relevant and necessary for effective work performance?
These questions were often asked in the form of a survey. It's important to look for
consensus among the people doing the job, as well as areas where there's little
agreement. Also, possible issues with language, or the way the competencies are
described, and refine those as well should be done effectively.
Step Four: Implementing
To help get buy-in from members of staff at all levels of the organization, it's important to
explain to them why the framework was developed, and how it will be used, how it will be
updated, and which procedures are put in place to accommodate changes.
Link to business objectives connection between individual competencies and
organizational goals and values should be maintained as much as possible.
Reward the competencies The policies and practices should support and reward the
competencies identified.
Provide coaching and training adequate coaching and training availablity. People need
to know that their efforts will be supported.
Keep it simple The framework should be as simple as possible. The document is to be
used, not filed away and forgotten.
Communicate The implementation should be treated as any other change initiative.
The more open and honest the process is, the better the end result and the better the
chances of the project achieving the desired objectives.

CONCLUSION

The Job description template Skill Matrix and Competency framework can be used as a toll and
reveiwed periodically to make sure it acurately reflects what the employee is doing and your
expectations of results from the employee holding the identified positions.
The job description can be used as a basis for the employee development plan (PDP): An
employee's job description is integral in the development of his or her quarterly employee
development plan.

36
An effective job description establishes a base so that an employee can clearly understand what
they need to develop personally, and contribute within your organization. Develop job
descriptions to provide employees with a compass and clear direction.
A skill inventory allows a person to take an accurate an inventory of their skills, to prioritize
skills according to level of interest, and then to assess their proficiencies. It is commonly used in
career counseling, personal marketing strategies, employee assessments.
Creating a competency framework is an effective method to assess, maintain, and monitor the
knowledge, skills, and attributes of people in your organization. The framework allows you to
measure current competency levels to make sure your staff members have the expertise
needed to add value to the business. It also helps managers make informed decisions about
talent recruitment, retention, and succession strategies. And, by identifying the specific
behaviors and skills needed for each role, it enables you to budget and plan for the training and
development your company really needs.
The process of creating a competency framework is long and complex. To ensure a successful
outcome, involve people actually doing carrying out the roles to evaluate real jobs, and
describe real behaviors. The increased level of understanding and linkage between individual
roles and organizational performance makes the effort well worth it.
