Issue Date: May 2024


The application of this unit in the workplace includes planning supply support, and managing the delivery of supply support services. This involves overseeing local procurement, inventory control, warehousing and the return, salvage and disposal of supplies to meet the specific requirements of an operation.

This unit of competency is applicable to logistic personnel who have a responsibility to organise and manage the delivery of supply support in a deployment context.

This person will bring management skills and leadership to perform the scope of this unit of competency. Supply organisations may be comprised of a range of supply capabilities from different disciplines which when brought together form a composite supply support organisation. The composition of the supply organisation will be guided by the type and scale of operation being supported. All activities are carried out in accordance with relevant organisational policy and procedures.

This unit involves the skills and knowledge required to organise supply support operations in a deployed context in support of organisational operations. There are no specific licensing or certification requirements applicable to this unit.
