3 | Manage and monitor contract arrangements | 3.1 | Coordinate contract arrangements for the installation and commissioning of equipment/systems, including all legal, insurance and safety requirements, in accordance with workplace and/or legislative procedures |
| 3.2 | Monitor contract arrangements to ensure they comply with requirements and deal with variations according to agreed strategy |
| 3.3 | Gather information to establish schedule and maintain budget forecasts |
| 3.4 | Monitor deviation from performance targets and, if necessary, take corrective action |
| 3.5 | Assess scheduling and budgeting processes to determine whether variations or alternative plans are indicated |

| 4.2 | Manage the application of technical skills by other personnel to ensure compliance |
| 4.3 | Assess completed work to confirm all specifications have been incorporated |
| 4.4 | Prepare report on work completed in accordance with workplace procedures |
| 4.5 | Maintain records of installation and commissioning activities, in accordance with workplace procedures |
Evidence required to demonstrate competence in this unit must be relevant to and satisfy the requirements of the elements and performance criteria, and include:
reading and following work instructions, standard operating procedures (SOPs), safe work practices
applying relevant standards
developing and preparing work plan and specification documents
organising and monitoring contract arrangements
assessing scheduling and budgeting procedures
dealing with variations in contract arrangements and deviations from performance targets
implementing legal, environmental and work health and safety (WHS) obligations/requirements
managing the application of technical skills by other personnel to ensure completed work meets specifications
assessing completed work to confirm all specifications have been incorporated
determining report requirements and presenting information in appropriate formats
maintaining records of installation and commissioning activities in accordance with workplace procedures.
Evidence must be provided that demonstrates knowledge of:
safe work practices and procedures and use of personal protective equipment (PPE)
relevant Australian Standards
appropriate installation and commissioning procedures
WHS considerations and environmental factors
contract requirements
processes for dealing with contract variations and deviations from performance targets
WHS and environmental aspects of relevant enterprise activities
workplace practices and reporting/recording processes
relevant WHS legislation, regulatory requirements and codes of practice
hazard identification and control measures associated with managing installation and commissioning of equipment and systems
workplace procedures
recording and reporting practices.
Assessors must:
satisfy the assessor competency requirements that are in place at the time of the assessment, as set by the VET regulator
have vocational competency in managing installation and commissioning of equipment and systems, at least to the level being assessed, with relevant industry knowledge and experience.
Assessment should occur in operational workplace situations. Where this is not possible, or where personal safety or environmental damage are limiting factors, assessment must occur in a sufficiently rigorous simulated environment reflecting realistic operational workplace conditions. This must cover all aspects of workplace performance, including environment, task skills, task management skills, contingency management skills and job role environment skills.
Assessment processes and techniques must be appropriate to the language, literacy and numeracy requirements of the work being performed and the needs of the candidate.
Conditions for assessment must include access to all tools, equipment, materials and documentation required, including relevant workplace procedures, product and manufacturing specifications associated with this unit.
The unit is applicable to all TCF sectors and assessment must ensure it is delivered to suit the industry it is being applied to.
