Develop provisioning of telecommunications building works project

Assessment tool

Version 1.0
Issue Date: March 2024


This unit describes the skills and knowledge required to develop provisioning of building services, including gathering information on the role of power and building services, equipment and infrastructure deployments, building standards, building services capacity and building works programs to evaluate allowable types of building services.

It applies to individuals with a range of telecommunications skills and extensive knowledge of core and access network capabilities of the service provider. It prepares individuals for entry into planning and design for network additions and implementations to accommodate network growth and new technologies within the industry.

No licensing, legislative 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)



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.

Element

Performance Criteria

Elements describe the essential outcomes.

Performance criteria describe the performance needed to demonstrate achievement of the element.

1. Scope the project

1.1 Prepare for given work according to relevant legislation, codes, regulations and standards, including work health and safety (WHS) processes and procedures

1.2 Determine the main role power and building services perform in a network facility and note their effect on network reliability and performance

1.3 Assess the provisioning process required to identify, plan and implement power and building services for equipment deployment plans

2. Assess equipment and infrastructure deployments

2.1 Evaluate available capacity from power and cooling plant to support the effect on floor loading, power and heat load from equipment deployments

2.2 Determine different levels of reliability performance standards applicable to specific equipment deployment needs

2.3 Develop a process to plan or implement a power and building services upgrade compatible to the network equipment requirements

2.4 Assess options available to manage capacity growth in a facility and the effect of potential single points of failure in an end-to-end power and building services system

3. Develop building works programs

3.1 Develop short- and long-term works programs for building projects that include minor upgrades to large installations

3.2 Determine triggers that may require a power and building services capacity or reliability upgrade

3.3 Prioritise projects based on customer demand and business needs

4. Assess provisioning of building services

4.1 Assess the possible effect on current and future use of a building or space when provisioning power and building services

4.2 Produce cost estimates including constraints for provisioning of a power and building services upgrade

Evidence of ability to:

assess capacity and suitability of available power and building services for telecommunications building works

develop a process to implement a power and building services upgrade

develop short- and long-term works projects for equipment and infrastructure deployments

produce accurate cost estimates for provisioning.

Note: If a specific volume or frequency is not stated, then evidence must be provided at least once.

To complete the unit requirements safely and effectively, the individual must:

describe the process to assess capacity and suitability of available power and building services

outline the following features of a building works project:

correlation between building service systems to network equipment requirements

different levels of reliability performance standards, applicable to specific equipment deployment needs

information required to assess effect on floor loading, power and heat load from equipment deployments

main regulatory standards

role of power and building services, capacity and standards

establish the source of budget cost estimates

define the specific short and long term works programs

identify typical issues and challenges that occur in telecommunications building service systems and how these may be addressed

outline the process for power and building services upgrades.

Gather evidence to demonstrate consistent performance in conditions that are safe and replicate the workplace. Noise levels, production flow, interruptions and time variances must be typical of those experienced in the Telecommunications – Network Planning field of work and include access to:

building facilities where a telecommunications network project may be conducted

relevant regulatory, organisational procedures

documentation impacting work.

Assessors of this unit must satisfy the requirements for assessors in applicable vocational education and training legislation, frameworks and/or standards.

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.
