Annex
THE CORE COMPETENCY MODEL
The processes within a company can be broken
down into tiers, for which there are six ranging from 0-5. The
lower the number, the more complex the work associated with it.
BAE SYSTEMS has been looking at the work it
undertakes and breaking it down into these six tiers. It then
decides which tiers are value adding, ie work that is more profitable
if it is done within the business, and that which is not and can
be divested.
As a brief description of the sort of work that
can be associated with the various tiers, in relation to the radar
work undertaken at the Cowes site, the following has been compiled:
Tier 0 Product development and design assurance
Tier 1 Radar system integration and test
Tier 2 Radar sub-system integration and test
Tier 3 Antenna, transmitter, motor bearings and turning gear
general assembly
Tier 4 Manufacture of mechanical structures and assembly of
electronic units
Tier 5 Manufacture of brackets, cable assembly and wiring
of looms
