PBS assessment tools and performance measures can be used to help select people who understand the job and its requirements, who share your corporate values, and who have the necessary prerequisite competencies and characteristics for success. They can also be used to identify skill gaps, potential, and jobs of best fit for current incumbents. PBS specializes in the development and implementation of valid, fair, efficient, durable, and legally defensible performance measures and indicators, including:

• Test and Assessment Tools: skill and ability tests; compatibility assessments, work orientation and attitude surveys, work sample exercises, physical ability tests, and interviews.
• Performance Evaluation Programs: supervisory appraisals, multi-rater indices (360 degree feedback instruments), and performance checklists.

PBS develops/recommends assessment tools that reflect job requirements and organizational values and competencies, differentiate among applicants/incumbents, and increase both the effectiveness and utility of HR decisions.
