How to Request and Assign Bespoke Standards in BlueSky
This article explains how to request a bespoke Support Framework (bespoke standard) and how to add, assign and run a bespoke standards review within the People Development (BlueSky) system.
Requesting a bespoke standard (what to send)
- Provide the Job Title you want the bespoke standard created for.
- Provide a list of the standards/statements you want included for that role.
- Send these details to the support/professional services team so they can create the bespoke standard for your organisation.
Preparing your organisation
- Bespoke standards must be added to your organisation in the system before they can be assigned or used.
- If a bespoke standard does not appear when assigning, it must first be added by an administrator.
How an administrator adds and assigns a bespoke standards review
- Ensure the bespoke standard is present in your organisation (either previously added or created by the support/professional services team).
- Go to the Admin area of the platform.
- Select Reviews (or Standards, depending on your terminology).
- Click Bulk Assign Standards.
- From the dropdown, choose the relevant bespoke standard (only bespoke standards already added to your organisation will appear).
- Select the individuals or groups to whom you want to assign the standard.
- Click Assign Standards to complete the assignment.
How staff complete a bespoke self-review
- Once a bespoke standard is assigned, staff can perform a self-review by navigating to the Standards or Reviews area.
- Staff should click into the relevant bespoke standard and review the provided statements.
Support and creation assistance
- The support/professional services team can create bespoke standards for you if you send the Job Title and the list of standards to meet.
- Provide full details of what you want set up so the team can pass it to professional services for creation.
Conclusion To get a bespoke Support Framework available in your organisation: prepare and send the Job Title plus the list of standards to the support/professional services team for creation, confirm the bespoke standard is added to your organisation, then use the Admin > Reviews (or Standards) > Bulk Assign Standards workflow to assign it to staff so they can complete self-reviews.
