Unit of Competency LMTGN4005A - Plan and implement production within a work area
Description This unit covers the skills and knowledge required to plan and implement production within a work team within a textiles, clothing or footwear (TCF) industry workplace.
Employability Skills This unit contains employability skills.
Learning Outcomes and Application This unit applies to determining, planning, implementing and monitoring production work flow within a work team in a TCF workplace where discretion and judgement may be required, for both self and others, in planning and selecting processes, procedures or outcomes. Work may be conducted in a variety of environments, ie operational workplace activities, restricted space, hazardous, controlled or exposed conditions.TCF production areas may include:textile productionclothing productionfootwear productionearly stage wool processingcotton ginningleather productionmillinerycanvas and sails productionlaundry operationsdry cleaning operationsOperations may cover various time scales to reflect seasonal planningWork may be conducted in small to large scale enterprises and may involve individual and team activities. The unit is applied according to OHS and workplace practices of the enterprise, which may include:requirements prescribed by legislation, awards, agreements and conditions of employmentstandard operating procedureswork instructionsoral, written and visual communicationquality practices, including responsibility for maintenance of own work quality and contribution to quality improvement of team or section outputhousekeepingtasks related to environmental protection, waste disposal, pollution control and recyclingThis unit requires the application of skills associated with planning and organising production requirements, processes and schedules for a work team. This unit also requires an ability to implement and problem solve production processes. Communication skills will be used to interpret production requirements, organise work team, communicate with team and individuals and maintain records.
Duration and Setting X weeks, nominally xx hours, delivered in a classroom/online/blended learning setting.

Elements of Competency Performance Criteria              
Element: Determine production requirements
  • Projected quantity and quality requirements, standard times and production capacities are identified
  • Production process and material handling options are identified
  • Resources required for the project or production order are established
       
Element: Prioritise work
  • Work is prioritised taking into account production demands, customer requests and requirements and efficiency standards of the workplace
       
Element: Sequence production

  • Facility, equipment and material and resources required for the production process are identified and organised in accordance with the production schedule and OHS practices
       
Element: Implement and monitor work flow
  • Work flow is monitored to ensure production schedule is maintained
  • Methods are implemented to ensure that work is directed to each work area or location as required, and potential congestion areas are identified
  • Troubleshooting occurs on a regular basis in response to breakdowns, absenteeism and other factors
       
Element: Implement variations to production plan
  • Systematic implementation of variations to the production plan are coordinated to ensure production meets the schedule and specifications
  • Work is re-allocated in accordance with production priorities, where required
  • Inefficiencies are identified and dealt with in accordance with workplace production practices
  • Team or individual responsibilities are defined and communicated
