Supervise engineering and logistic tasks

Assessment tool

Version 1.0
Issue Date: April 2024


This unit describes the skills required to supervise a team involved in engineering and logistic tasks. It includes planning the task, applying safety precautions, identifying requirements and resources, and supervising the performance of the task.

This unit applies to those supervising a team activity requiring engineering and logistic tasks.

The skills and knowledge described in this unit must be applied within the legislative, regulatory and policy environment in which they are carried out. Organisational policies and procedures must be consulted and adhered to.

Those undertaking this unit would supervise small teams, using discretion and judgement and taking responsibility for the quality of their outputs. They would perform specific tasks in a range of contexts that could be unpredictable.

No licensing, legislative or certification requirements apply to 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)


Evidence Required

List the assessment methods to be used and the context and resources required for assessment. Copy and paste the relevant sections from the evidence guide below and then re-write these in plain English.

ELEMENTS

PERFORMANCE CRITERIA

Elements describe the essential outcomes

Performance criteria describe the performance needed to demonstrate achievement of the element. Where bold italicised text is used, further information is detailed in the range of conditions section.

1. Identify task requirements and allocated resources

1.1 Receive task requirements and determine constraints imposed and any special requirements.

1.2 Identify doctrine, policies and procedures applying to the task.

1.3 Analyse the task to identify issues of concern and shortfalls.

1.4 Report identified concerns and shortfalls to the chain of command.

2. Plan and prepare for task

2.1 Plan method of performing the task, including contingency arrangements.

2.2 Identify personnel to be employed in the process, and ensure they are competent for the task.

2.3 Acquire resources required for the task, such as materials, drawings, work procedures and other documentation.

2.4 Assess resources for suitability and report defects/shortfalls.

2.5 Conduct task briefings.

3. Supervise task

3.1 Oversee observance of appropriate operational and WHS requirements/safety precautions.

3.2 Ensure efficiency in performance and mission is achieved.

3.3 Ascertain support requirements and either provide or request.

3.4 Refer issues that cannot be resolved to the chain of command.

4. Finalise task

4.1 Refurbish task area, tools, materials and equipment.

4.2 Complete documentation associated with the task.

Evidence required to demonstrate competence must satisfy all of the requirements of the elements and performance criteria. If not otherwise specified the candidate must demonstrate evidence of performance of the following on at least one occasion.

allocating appropriate resources

directing, briefing, coordinating and monitoring personnel

providing reports and documentation

interacting effectively with stakeholders

Evidence required to demonstrate competence must satisfy all of the requirements of the elements and performance criteria. If not otherwise specified the depth of knowledge demonstrated must be appropriate to the job context of the candidate.

Operational knowledge of:

activities in the task to be performed

characteristics, technical capabilities, effects, employment and limitations of equipment associated with the task

command and control procedures

personnel skill requirements for each activity within the task

reporting requirements and procedures associated with the task

Competency should be assessed in an actual workplace or in a simulated environment, with access to equipment and infrastructure appropriate to the outcome. Competency should be demonstrated over time to ensure the candidate is assessed across a variety of situations.

Assessors must satisfy the NVR/AQTF mandatory competency requirements for assessors.

Submission Requirements

Assessment Tasks

Copy and paste from the following data to produce each assessment task. Write these in plain English and spell out how, when and where the task is to be carried out, under what conditions, and what resources are needed. Include guidelines about how well the candidate has to perform a task for it to be judged satisfactory.

Copy and paste from the following performance criteria to create an observation checklist for each task. When you have finished writing your assessment tool every one of these must have been addressed, preferably several times in a variety of contexts. To ensure this occurs download the assessment matrix for the unit; enter each assessment task as a column header and place check marks against each performance criteria that task addresses.
