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. Define project | 1.1 Define business problems and initial scope 1.2 Identify key stakeholders and analyse stakeholder needs 1.3 Define project constraints |
2. Develop project business case and feasibility | 2.1 Identify project objectives and benefits 2.2 Identify and select feasible ICT solutions 2.3 Develop and present the business case or feasibility study 2.4 Obtain appropriate sign-off |
3. Select project approach | 3.1 Identify project core technology areas 3.2 Identify solution approach requirements 3.3 Negotiate project outcomes |
4. Establish the ICT project team | 4.1 Identify and select team members 4.2 Establish team member roles and responsibilities 4.3 Develop a cohesive technical team 4.4 Train and support team members |
Evidence of the ability to:
produce a comprehensive business case information and communications technology (ICT) project implementation approach that takes into account core technology limitations and project constraints
establish and work in a cohesive project team.
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:
explain the characteristics of leadership and technical teams
describe the consultation and communication techniques, styles and strategies, including interviewing techniques required when managing a project
describe estimation and cost analysis techniques
explain the process of establishing technical teams and determining stages of team development

describe performance management and project team appraisal methods
identify and describe the processes for monitoring team and own performance
explain cash flow and how it is managed through budgeting
describe a range of project management methods and tools, and how they apply in a formal project management methodology
explain the proposed systems analysis and modelling techniques
summarise the process of determining team roles, and describe the delegation process within a multi-project methodology context
explain the proposed technology solution models and frameworks.
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 ICT project management field of work and include access to:
industry software packages
an organisation's identified problem, opportunity or unfulfilled legislative need.
Assessors must satisfy NVR/AQTF assessor requirements.
