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. Prepare for the pilot system | 1.1 Establish and confirm the objectives, success criteria and acceptance criteria, for pilot implementation 1.2 Identify and secure, the technical and organisational resources required for pilot implementation 1.3 Establish and confirm executive support for the pilot 1.4 Complete the project plan for the pilot, and refer the project documentation to the appropriate person for their approval |
2. Install the pilot system | 2.1 Install and configure pilot according to the project plan 2.2 Verify and record the technical readiness of the pilot 2.3 Take the necessary actions to determine accuracy of the data 2.4 Prepare a status report, and submit to the appropriate person for their sign-off |
3. Test the pilot system | 3.1 Work with stakeholders to identify and release the appropriate pilot group 3.2 Brief the pilot-team members on the objectives of the test 3.3 Train the pilot-team members in the new system 3.4 Run the test |
4. Evaluate the results and feedback of the pilot | 4.1 Assess computerised results of the pilot test 4.2 Interview pilot group members in order to obtain feedback 4.3 Document the feedback and results 4.4 Evaluate according to success, and the acceptance criteria previously established 4.5 Report the final recommendations from the pilot, with regard to a complete installation of the pilot system, to the appropriate person |
Evidence of the ability to:
establish objectives, acceptance criteria and resource requirements for implementation of a pilot system
prepare a project plan for a pilot system, according to organisational requirements
install and verify a pilot system
test a pilot system with the pilot team
evaluate the results and feedback on a pilot
report on the outcomes of a pilot system.
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:
identify the role of stakeholders, and the degree of stakeholder involvement in the development of a pilot system
explain three or more current industry information-gathering methodologies
describe current industry system development and design methodologies
describe current industry-accepted hardware and software products, providing an overview of general features and capabilities, and in-depth details of installing pilot systems
describe the general features and capabilities of current industry-accepted system piloting methodologies
outline quality assurance practices with regard to installing, testing and evaluating a system.
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 programming and software development industry, and include access to the:
pilot system
planning documentation, including acceptance criteria
technical materials
interaction with others involved in the pilot.
Assessors must satisfy NVR/AQTF assessor requirements.
