The MOBILAR® framework

Two models.
One language for the workshop.

A skill only means something in the context of the work. MOBILAR® keeps tasks and skills as two connected libraries built by automotive experts, then creates a customer-specific model from them.

One connected framework

The work you require.
The skills it takes.

The Task Model defines what technicians need to do. The Skills Model defines the capability that work requires. MOBILAR® connects the two, so skills are understood in the context of real work, not as isolated labels.

Task Model

What work needs to be done?

  • The tasks a role performs
  • The context and complexity of that work
  • A shared reference for what the job requires

Skills Model

What capability does that work require?

  • The skills linked to each task
  • One skill can support several tasks
  • Observable behaviour makes each skill concrete
One shared foundation

Your customer-specific model.

The tasks your roles perform. The skills that work requires. Connected in your automotive context.

Role profiles

Define what each role needs to do.

Assessment evidence

Observe capability against those requirements.

Targeted development

Connect measured needs to relevant learning.

Explore the two models behind this shared foundation below.

Task Model

The work, graded by complexity.

Every task in the Task Library sits in one of four levels: simple, regular, difficult or complex. The level is set with objective criteria, so a task means the same thing in every country and dealer.

Task Library by complexity
SimpleTC1
  • Vehicle preparation
  • Wheel and tyre service
  • Fluid level check
RegularTC2
  • Brake system overhaul
  • Simple electrical repair
  • Gather technical information
DifficultTC3
  • Intermittent electrical fault
  • Air-conditioning diagnosis
  • Software update and coding
ComplexTC4
  • Diagnose intermittent CAN fault
  • High-voltage system diagnosis
  • ADAS calibration fault
Example tasks, simplified.
Skills Model

The skills behind every task.

Skills are organised in skill groups. Each skill is linked to the tasks that need it, with a weight that says how much it counts in that task.

Within a task, a skill becomes concrete through skill measuring points: observable actions an assessor can score on a job card.

Skills Library
Diagnosis
  • Symptom analysis
  • Read wiring diagrams
  • Use oscilloscope
Electrical and electronics
  • Measure voltage and resistance
  • Network communication
  • High-voltage safety
Mechanical
  • Torque and fastening
  • Hydraulic systems
  • Precision measurement
Workshop process
  • Use technical information
  • Document the repair
  • Customer communication

Gets better with use

Feedback loops keep the model current.

Assessment results, expert reviews and new vehicle technology feed back into the libraries. Your customer model stays aligned with the work, and the MOBILAR® library improves for every network.

People validate every change. The Agent drafts and maps; experts confirm.

Framework questions

Tasks and skills,
answered.

How the Task Model and Skills Model work together for your organisation.

Ask a question

The Task Model describes the work: what is done, in which domain and at which complexity. The Skills Model describes the capability needed to do it. Keeping them as two connected libraries lets one skill serve many tasks.
