Develop a textile product range

Assessment tool

Version 1.0
Issue Date: May 2024


This unit applies to the development of a textile product range based on a client brief, and presentation of the designed range to the client for acceptance.

Work may be conducted in small to large scale enterprises and may involve individual and team-related activities.

The application of this unit is according to OHS practices of the enterprise and workplace practices, which may include:

requirements prescribed by legislation, awards agreements and conditions of employment

standard operating procedures

work instructions

oral, written and visual communication

quality practices, including responsibility for maintenance of own work quality and contribution to quality improvement of team or section output

housekeeping

tasks related to environmental protection, waste disposal, pollution control, and recycling

This unit requires the application of communications skills associated with interpreting product requirements, undertaking research, and presenting and communicating designs. Technology is applied during the design process when using computer aided design systems. Problem solving, initiative and enterprise and planning and organising are central to the design development process. Teamwork skills are required to refine design concepts with design team.

This unit covers the skills and knowledge to develop a textile product range and present the range to the client.

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

clarify and check task-related information

carry out work according to OHS practices

The range statement relates to the unit of competency as a whole. It allows for different work environments and situations that may affect performance. Bold italicised wording, if used in the Performance Criteria, is detailed below. Add any essential operating conditions that may be present with training and assessment depending on the work situation, needs if the candidate, accessibility of the item, and local industry and regional contexts.

Legislative/regulatory requirements

All work must comply with relevant Federal and State or Territory legislative or regulatory requirements.

Textile product range may include

industrial products, eg protective textiles

household products, eg tableware, manchester, cleaning cloths

leisure products, eg camping and outdoor equipment

artworks

fabrics

fashion accessories

Design requirements may include

end uses of product

budget requirements

production requirements

timelines

client requirements

workplace requirements

quality requirements

style, feature requirements

Presentation tools include

story boards

models

computer-aided drawings

textile or yarn samples

OHS practices

OHS practices must include hazard identification and control, risk assessment and implementation of risk reduction measures specific to the tasks described by this unit and may include:

manual handling techniques

standard operating procedures

personal protective equipment

safe materials handling

taking of rest breaks

ergonomic arrangement of workplaces

following marked walkways

safe storage of equipment

housekeeping

reporting accidents and incidents

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.
