Computer Readable Medium and Program Product For Facilitating Organization Transition and Realignment

A computer readable medium that is readable by a computer assisting in the transition and realignment of an existing organization structure of an entity undergoing organizational realignment into a new organization structure, the computer readable medium comprising a set of instructions that when executed by a computer cause the computer to perform the following operations:

• providing a plurality of organization analysis web pages associated with an organization realignment web site to capture data developed by a plurality of organization members defining process development team members and used to analyze and define functions, activities, tasks, and roles to form a new organization structure to thereby provide a repository of the data and to provide access to the data by organization member participants during transition development between an old organization structure to the new organization structure to encourage learning, promote a sense of ownership, and encourage full involvement in realigning to the new organization structure;
• providing a plurality of resource determination web pages associated with an organization realignment web site to determine a qualified supply of resources available to the new organization structure and including at least one role competency self-evaluation web page form used to evaluate organization members competency in performing a plurality of roles identified to perform associated tasks supporting at least one of a plurality of activities under each respective one of a plurality of functions;
• and
• providing one or more requirements web pages associated with the organization realignment web site to determine the following:
• a skills gap describing a difference between aggregate role-based resource demand required by the new organization structure and qualified supply of resources available to the new organization structure from resources employed by the existing organization structure, and
• a resource gap describing a difference between personnel-based resource requirements of the new organization structure and the qualified supply of resources available to the new organization structure from resources employed by the existing organization structure.

A computer readable medium that is readable by a computer assisting in the transition and realignment of an existing organization structure of an entity undergoing organizational realignment into a new organization structure, the computer readable medium comprising a set of instructions that when executed by a computer cause the computer to perform the following operations:

• determining a qualified supply of resources available to each separate role of a plurality of roles according to the new organization structure responsive to data describing results of a role competency evaluation for each of a plurality of organization members to define a qualified resource supply available to each role to satisfy the new organization structure from resources employed by the existing organization structure;
• determining an estimate of a number of work-units required for each role of the plurality of roles to perform tasks the respective role is responsible for performing across associated functions according to the new organization structure;
• determining an average number of assignable work-units per unit of time for each of the plurality of roles;
• determining a demand estimate for each role of the plurality of roles responsive to data describing the estimated number of work units required of each respective role to perform the tasks the respective role is responsible for performing across associated functions and responsive to data describing the determined average number of assignable work-units per unit of time for the respective role to determine an estimated number of units of time required for each respective role to perform the tasks the respective role is responsible for performing across associated functions to thereby determine an aggregate resource demand estimate, the aggregate resource demand estimate defining an aggregate number of resources required for the respective role to perform the tasks the respective role is responsible for performing across associated functions;
• and
• calculating a skills gap in transitioning the existing organization structure to the new organization structure responsive to role identification data, qualified supply data, and aggregate resource demand estimate data, the skills gap defined as a difference between the aggregate resource demand required by the new organization structure and qualified resource supply available to the new organization structure from resources employed by the existing organization structure.

A computer readable medium that is readable by a computer assisting in the transition and realignment of an existing organization structure of an entity undergoing organizational realignment into a new organization structure, the computer readable medium comprising a set of instructions that when executed by a computer cause the computer to perform the following operations:

• receiving a plurality of activities to support major functions of a new organization structure responsive to user input;
• receiving a listing of a plurality of tasks to accomplish for each of the plurality of activities and associated roles responsive to user input;
• calculating a sum of products of a time duration to perform each associated task and an aggregate frequency of the respective task to determine a total demand on each respective role based on associated tasks the respective role is responsible for performing across associated functions defining an aggregate resource demand;
• determining a number of qualified personnel having a required competency level and availability to fulfill the respective role to thereby determine a qualified resource supply;
• and
• determining a skills gap in transitioning from the existing organization structure to the new organization structure responsive to role identification, the aggregate resource demand, and the qualified resource supply to thereby enhance organization transition planning.

Program product for assisting in the transition and realignment of an existing organization structure of an entity undergoing organizational realignment into a new organization structure, the program product comprising a set of instructions stored in a tangible computer readable medium that when executed by a computer, cause the computer to perform the operations of:

• receiving a plurality of activities to support major functions of a new organization structure responsive to user input;
• receiving a listing of a plurality of tasks to accomplish for each of the plurality of activities and associated roles responsive to user input;
• calculating a sum of products of a time duration to perform each associated task and an aggregate frequency of the respective task to determine a total demand on each respective role based on associated tasks the respective role is responsible for performing across associated functions defining an aggregate resource demand;
• determining a number of qualified personnel having a required competency level and availability to fulfill the respective role to thereby determine a qualified resource supply;
• and
• determining a skills gap in transitioning from the existing organization structure to the new organization structure responsive to role identification, the aggregate resource demand, and the qualified resource supply to thereby enhance organization transition planning.
