Capability Assessments
Measure what your people can actually do.
Peritiv Capability Assessments evaluate the knowledge required to perform in key hospitality roles.
Each assessment is purpose-built to reflect the real-world demands of the industry, providing a clear, structured view of an individual’s strengths, gaps, and overall readiness.

We offer a flexible approach; from individual role-specific assessments to bundled packages, through to fully bespoke solutions tailored to your business.
What It Measures
Our capability assessments are designed to evaluate applied knowledge, not just theory.
Each assessment measures:
- Role-specific technical knowledge and decision-making
- Understanding of operational, financial, and people management principles
- Ability to apply knowledge to real-world scenarios
- Awareness of best practice within hospitality environments
In addition to performance, each assessment captures self-confidence ratings, providing a deeper layer of insight into how individuals perceive their own capability.
This enables identification of:
- Overconfidence
- Underconfidence
- Target areas for development and support
Why Capability Matters
Experience alone does not guarantee capability.
Capability assessments provide objective insight into whether individuals:
- Have the knowledge required for the role
- Can apply that knowledge effectively
- Are ready to step into more senior positions
- Have gaps that may impact performance
They replace assumption with evidence, enabling more confident, data-informed decisions.
How It’s Used
Peritiv Capability Assessments support both hiring and ongoing performance development.
They are used to:
- Screen and shortlist candidates based on role-specific capability
- Benchmark individuals against industry standards
- Identify training and development needs
- Support promotions and succession planning
Each report includes benchmark comparisons drawn from a growing database of hospitality professionals, providing context on how individuals perform relative to the market.
