A checkable standard for companies that want capability evidence, not assumption.
DEX assesses whether a company's people, roles, leaders, and operating conditions support the work it claims it can perform. Company certification is context-calibrated, annually renewed, and verification-backed.
Illustrative record. Verification preview requires real registry data.
An institutional standard, in the company of recognised bodies
Partner and recognition logos require real data before publication.
Most companies still manage capability through proxies.
Resumes, titles, degrees, tenure, interviews, employee sentiment, and internal reputation all provide information. None of them alone proves that the company has the capability system required to execute.
As work changes, old signals become easier to polish and harder to interpret. The question a serious buyer must answer is sharper.
Does this company have the evidenced, placed, converted, developed, and governed capability required for the work it claims it can perform?

One measurement spine. One company standard.
The company capability system, in six pillars.
DEX certifies whether capability is evidenced, fitted, placed, converted, developed, and governed. The result is a company signal that must be earned, scoped, renewed annually, and verified.
Capability Evidence
Credible evidence of individual and workforce capability.
Capability Fit
Capability that fits the business model, market, and operating demands.
Capability Placement
Capable people positioned where outcomes depend on them.
Capability Conversion
Leaders, workflows, and decisions that turn capability into execution.
Capability Development
A pathway that helps people grow toward the standard.
Capability Governance
Evidence review, claim control, verification, and annual renewal.
Not a culture award. Not a consulting diagnosis. Not a training platform.
DEX evaluates whether a company's capability system fits its own operating reality. Adjacent categories show part of the picture. DEX adds the evidence, scope, and verification.
| Adjacent category | What it can show | What DEX adds |
|---|---|---|
| Culture recognition | Employee experience and workplace sentiment | Capability evidence, placement, conversion, governance, and verification |
| Individual credentials | A person has met a credential standard | Whether workforce capability supports the certified company scope |
| Consulting diagnosis | Expert interpretation of an organisation | A standards-led pathway with renewal and public verification |
| Training platform | Learning participation or skills exposure | Evidence that capability can be demonstrated and governed |
| Conformity certification | Alignment to specified requirements | Context-calibrated capability fit against actual operating demands |
A governed pathway from evidence to certification.
DEX for Business is an ordered pathway, not a menu of unrelated services. A company moves from fit and calibration, through evidence and review, to certification, verification, and renewal.
Fit & calibration intake
Define scope, operating context, workforce structure, and certification pathway.
Evidence & mapping
Baseline capability, then map it by role, domain, level, team, and site.
Review & certification
Integrate evidence into a company-level review, then certify where the standard is met.
Verify & renew
Show status publicly where applicable and renew the evidence annually.

A company signal is only worth what it can withstand.
DEX certification is built to be checked. Scope is stated. Status is public. The record expires. A claim a company cannot defend is a claim DEX does not let it make.
Certified for a defined scope
A company certified for one function or country may not imply whole-company certification.
Renewed every year
Capability is perishable. A certification that never expires becomes weaker over time.
Verified in public
Anyone can confirm whether the claim is real, active, scoped, and current.
Six DEX dimensions. Sixteen assessment domains.
Individual capability evidence is organised through six dimensions. For company use, those signals become inputs into organisational questions about fit, placement, conversion, development, and governance.
Six DEX Dimensions
| Dimension | Abbr. | Business meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Target-Context Capability | TCC | Can the person operate in the actual work context? |
| Transfer & Adaptation Capacity | TAC | Can the person adapt judgement across situations? |
| Applied Judgement Under Constraint | AJC | Can the person decide well under pressure? |
| Execution Reliability | EXR | Can the person follow through responsibly? |
| Systems, Data & AI Fluency | SDA | Can the person work responsibly with systems and AI? |
| Professional Trust & Conduct | PTS | Can the person preserve trust and credibility? |
Sixteen Assessment Domains
Begin with evidence. We will route your inquiry.
Tell us about your company and the capability question you need to answer. A DEX account leader follows up where the inquiry is qualified.
A company signal should be checkable.
Verification confirms whether a credential or company certification is real, active, scoped, and current. It makes DEX different from self-reported claims.
Verification does not disclose private employee data, confidential feedback, or raw assessment details.
Move from capability assumption to capability evidence.
DEX gives companies a structured way to understand whether capability is present, placed, converted, developed, governed, and current.
