Unit of Competency DEFEO210C - Manage explosive ordnance engineering and logistics processes
Description This unit covers the competency required to manage a number of explosive ordnance processes.
Employability Skills This unit contains employability skills.
Learning Outcomes and Application This competency normally applies to the individual who is required to manage a number of explosive ordnance processes.A manager of explosive ordnance processes will have some autonomy of action, may delegate authority to subordinates and is capable of independent decision making, requiring no supervision.The management of explosive ordnance processes is primarily conducted in installations involved in the storage, distribution and maintenance of explosive ordnance, however it may be performed in research and development establishments and proof and experimental establishments.
Duration and Setting X weeks, nominally xx hours, delivered in a classroom/online/blended learning setting.

Elements of Competency Performance Criteria              
Element: Identify processes and feasibility
  • Processes to be performed are identified and confirmed with appropriate personnel
  • Policies, procedures and issues of concern/shortfall applying to the processes are identified
  • Resources required for their performance, and any special requirements for their conduct are determined
  • Feasibility of the processes to be undertaken identifying offsets/compromises as required is assessed
       
Element: Plan for conduct of processes
  • Conduct of processes is planned and the resource requirement is identified
  • Availability and suitability of resources are identified
  • Plans and schedules are adjusted to accord with resource availability, seeking authorisation to progress in accordance with organisational policies and procedures
  • Financial requirements are identified and acquired
  • Capital requirements are confirmed and acquisition is programmed
  • Production and support materials are sourced and procured to conform with production planning
  • Staffing requirements are confirmed and recruiting plan is developed and implemented to provide technical and administrative staff
  • Legislative requirements, including work health and safety (WHS) and environmental matters are identified and implemented during the planning and production process
  • Development and production plans are finalised, documented and authorised in accordance with current policies and procedures
       
Element: Manage processes
  • Explosive ordnance process controllers are informed of production requirements, resources and delegated authority
  • Explosive ordnance processes are managed to ensure efficiency of their performance, and quality of production and objectives are achieved
  • Production is monitored and plans are adjusted to reflect requirements in quality, quantity and efficiency
  • Explosive ordnance processes are coordinated as required and resources are reallocated/adjusted to meet requirements
  • Liaison is conducted with controllers, suppliers, clients and superiors as required ensuring feedback and performance are addressed
  • Reported defects/problems are actioned in accordance with procedures and instructions
  • Support requirements are ascertained and either provided or requested in accordance with current procedures
  • Reports are provided in accordance with current procedures
       
Element: Conclude processes
  • Production is processed in accordance with current instructions and procedures
  • Controllers are debriefed on the performance of their process
  • Resources are relocated in accordance with current instructions and procedures
  • Explosive ordnance processes are documented in accordance with current instructions and procedures
       


Evidence Required

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.

The evidence guide provides advice on assessment and must be read in conjunction with the Performance Criteria, Required Skills and Knowledge, the Range Statement and the Assessment Guidelines for this Training Package.

Critical aspects for assessment and evidence required to demonstrate competency in this unit

Assessment must confirm the ability to:

adhere to relevant WHS requirements and operational safety

plan and establish explosive ordnance processes

identify and acquire resources and adjust as necessary to ensure effective/efficient performance of the processes

Assessment must also confirm ability to initiate and efficiently monitor processes, initiate any remedial action required, communicate with supervisors, suppliers, clients and subordinates, prepare and provide relevant reports and documentation, and effectively and efficiently manage explosive ordnance processes.

Consistency in performance

Competency should be demonstrated in a range of actual or simulated explosive ordnance contexts.

Context of and specific resources for assessment

Context of assessment

Competency should be assessed in the workplace or under conditions which accurately simulate a realistic workplace in accordance with all relevant legislation and organisational requirements.

Specific resources for assessment

Access is required to:

facilities and resources used in the packaging, storage, distribution and maintenance of explosive ordnance, including a licensed explosive site

Method of assessment

This unit may be assessed with the following unit:

DEFEO101D Work safely with explosive ordnance.

In a public safety environment assessment is usually conducted via direct observation in a training environment or in the workplace via subject matter supervision and/or mentoring, which is typically recorded in a competency workbook.

Assessment is completed using appropriately qualified assessors who select the most appropriate method of assessment.

Assessment may occur in an operational environment or in an industry-approved simulated work environment. Forms of assessment that are typically used include:

direct observation

interviewing the candidate

journals and workplace documentation

third party reports from supervisors

written or oral questions


Submission Requirements

List each assessment task's title, type (eg project, observation/demonstration, essay, assignment, checklist) and due date here

Assessment Tasks

Copy and paste from the following data to produce each assessment task. Write these in plain English and spell out how, when and where the task is to be carried out, under what conditions, and what resources are needed. Include guidelines about how well the candidate has to perform a task for it to be judged satisfactory.

This describes the essential skills and knowledge and their level, required for this unit.

Required Skills

adjust activities to reflect changed circumstances

communicate with supervisors, suppliers, clients and subordinates

direct, coordinate and monitor processes

write reports

use a variety of verbal and non-verbal communication techniques including body language, language style, active listening

Required Knowledge

acquisition processes

composition of teams and roles and responsibilities of team members

explosive ordnance processes

financial management

instructions and procedures relating to the performance of the processes

inventory control

legislative requirements such as WHS and environmental requirements associated with the processes

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 in the Performance Criteria is detailed below.

Processes may include:

Inspection

Loading and unloading of vehicles/platforms

Modification

Packing and unpacking

Repair

Resources may include:

Explosive ordnance

Facilities

Finance

Materials

Personnel

Plant, tools and equipment, including vehicles

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.
