Assessment tool

Version 1.0
Issue Date: May 2024


This unit describes the performance outcomes required to remove, reassemble and align vehicle body panels as part of vehicle body repair activities. It involves preparing for the task, selecting and using specialist tools and equipment, following original equipment manufacturer (OEM) or authorised agency specifications and workplace procedures, carrying out a final alignment inspection, and completing workplace processes and documentation.

It applies to those working in the automotive body service and repair industry.

No licensing, legislative, regulatory or certification requirements apply to this unit at the time of publication.

You may want to include more information here about the target group and the purpose of the assessments (eg formative, summative, recognition)

Before competency can be determined, individuals must demonstrate they can perform the following according to the standard defined in this unit’s elements, performance criteria, range of conditions and foundation skills:

remove, replace and align bolt-on body panels and components on four different vehicles, in which the work must involve one combination of three adjoining vehicle bolt-on panels and components.

Individuals must be able to demonstrate knowledge of:

work health and safety (WHS) and occupational health and safety (OHS) requirements relating to removing, replacing and aligning bolt-on vehicle panels and components, including procedures for:

selecting and using personal protective equipment (PPE)

manually handling vehicle panels and components

using tools and equipment

location and content of accessing vehicle specifications

removal, replacement and alignment methods and techniques, including:

measuring bolt-on panel gaps

electronic warning sensors

tagging and storing bolt-on panels and components

panel sealant and application

headlight and panel alignment techniques

procedures for protecting vehicle and components during removal, replacement and alignment work, including protecting electrical, electronic and mechanical systems

procedures for final inspection of fitted bolt-on panels and components.

Assessors must satisfy NVR/AQTF assessor requirements.

Competency is to be assessed in the workplace or a simulated environment that accurately reflects performance in a real workplace setting.

Assessment must include direct observation of tasks.

Where assessment of competency includes third-party evidence, individuals must provide evidence that links them to the bolt-on panels and components that they have removed, replaced and aligned, e.g. repair orders.

Assessors must verify performance evidence through questioning on skills and knowledge to ensure correct interpretation and application.

The following resources must be made available:

automotive repair workplace or simulated workplace

workplace instructions

vehicle manufacturer specifications

four different vehicles requiring the removal, replacement and alignment of bolt-on panels, sections and components

bolt-on body panels and components

tools, equipment and materials appropriate for removing, replacing and aligning bolt-on panels and components, including required PPE.
