FAQ

What is the ONYX competency model in operational practice?

It is an approach where every role in the organization has clearly defined responsibilities and KPIs, and the process of planning and re-planning orders is supported by AI. The goal is to transition from intuitive action to measurable management.

How does the competency model affect the daily work of a transport team?

It organizes the division of tasks between planning, execution, and performance control. As a result, the team makes decisions faster, reacts better to route changes, and reduces organizational chaos.

What KPIs should be assigned to the competency model in a TSL company?

Punctuality, empty kilometer levels, order margins, event reaction times, and operational data quality are most commonly monitored. KPIs should be assigned to specific roles to facilitate the enforcement of responsibility.

What is the role of AI in the ONYX competency model?

AI supports real-time planning and re-planning by suggesting the best operational scenarios. It does not replace the decision-maker but shortens analysis time and increases the accuracy of decisions made by the team.

Will the competency model work for a smaller transport company as well?

Yes, because even at a small scale, competency structure and efficiency metrics improve process predictability. As the fleet grows, this foundation allows for faster scaling of the organization without losing quality.
