Elements and Performance Criteria

1. Record changeover process
   • Identify customer requirements and other specifications for required product or service
   • Identify last off good product or service and check against customer requirements and specifications
   • Identify likely start and required finish situations for last off or first off good product or service
   • Process map required steps in changeover
   • Identify any optional or alternative process steps
   • Record times and other relevant data on map
   • Confirm changeover map with relevant people

Required Skills

Required skills

Required skills include planning own work communicating with people relevant to job following standard procedures and practices developing and using process maps timing process steps

Required knowledge

Required knowledge includes equipment and processes used in area subject to changeover drawing and interpretation of process maps quick changeover principles relevant procedures and quality requirements purpose of the changeover and of making quick changeovers authorisation processes for change

Evidence Required

The evidence guide provides advice on assessment and must be read in conjunction with the performance criteria required skills and knowledge range statement and the Assessment Guidelines for the Training Package
Critical aspects for assessment and evidence required to demonstrate competency in this unit	A person who demonstrates competency in this unit must be able to provide evidence of the ability to follow process maps categorise changeover steps as either internal or external perform changeovers in accordance with procedures recommend improvements to the changeover procedure
Context of and specific resources for assessment	Assessment of performance must be undertaken in a workplace using or implementing one or more competitive systems and practices Access may be required to workplace procedures and plans relevant to work area specifications and documentation relating to planned currently being implemented or implemented changes to work processes and procedures relevant to the assessee documentation and information in relation to production waste overheads and hazard controlmanagement reports from supervisorsmanagers case studies and scenarios to assess responses to contingencies
Method of assessment	A holistic approach should be taken to the assessment Competence in this unit may be assessed by using a combination of the following to generate evidence demonstration in the workplace workplace projects suitable simulation case studiesscenarios particularly for assessment of contingencies improvement scenarios and so on targeted questioning reports from supervisors peers and colleagues thirdparty reports portfolio of evidence In all cases it is expected that practical assessment will be combined with targeted questioning to assess underpinning knowledge Where applicable reasonable adjustment must be made to work environments and training situations to accommodate ethnicity age gender demographics and disability
Guidance information for assessment	Assessment processes and techniques must be culturally appropriate and appropriate to the oracy language and literacy capacity of the candidate and the work being performed

Range Statement

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. Essential operating conditions that may be present with training and assessment (depending on the work situation, needs of the candidate, accessibility of the item, and local industry and regional contexts) may also be included.
Competitive systems and practices	Competitive systems and practices may include, but are not limited to: lean operations agile operations preventative and predictive maintenance approaches monitoring and data gathering systems, such as Systems Control and Data Acquisition (SCADA) software, Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) systems, Materials Resource Planning (MRP) and proprietary systems statistical process control systems, including six sigma and three sigma Just in Time (JIT), kanban and other pull-related operations control systems supply, value, and demand chain monitoring and analysis 5S continuous improvement (kaizen) breakthrough improvement (kaizen blitz) cause/effect diagrams overall equipment effectiveness (OEE) takt time process mapping problem solving run charts standard procedures current reality tree Competitive systems and practices should be interpreted so as to take into account: the stage of implementation of competitive systems and practices the size of the enterprise the work organisation, culture, regulatory environment and the industry sector
Changeover	A changeover occurs when a person is required to work on more than one product and to change between them as part of the work role. The product may be a physical or non-physical product and changeover may require some or all of the following: a change of equipment or parts changing (computer or paper) files changing computer software or templates other changes
Waste	Waste (also known as muda in the Toyota Production System and its derivatives) is usually defined by the ‘seven wastes’ which may include, but are not limited to: overproduction waiting transporting inappropriate processing unnecessary inventory excess motion defects underutilised employees having no-one follow
Internal and external changeover activities	Internal changeover activities are defined as: work that can be done only when the machine or process is not actively engaged in production (i.e. only while the changeover is occurring) External changeover activities are defined as: work that can be done concurrently with the machine or process performing production/work duties (i.e. either before or after the changeover proper)
