Elements of Competency Performance Criteria              
Element: Analyse the requirement
  • Operational task is received and analysed for maintenance requirements
  • Information is sourced and analysed to identify the maintenance factors to be considered in supporting operations
  • Recommendations are provided to management regarding maintenance support and the employment of maintenance capabilities
       
Element: Develop the maintenance plan
  • Logistic information management systems are utilised to compile and analyse maintenance planning data and information
  • Maintenance equipment failure and repair data are used to establish the type and scope of maintenance support required for the deployment
  • Maintenance estimates are produced to support courses of action
  • Maintenance policy and procedure are reviewed and or amended or developed to support the maintenance activity within the operational area of deployment
  • Maintenance organisational structure is developed to meet the maintenance estimates within organisational resource constraints
  • The integration of contracted maintenance support is considered for inclusion in the plan
  • Technical control arrangements are established within the framework of operational command and management
  • Maintenance plan is created in accordance with organisational policy and procedures
  • Risk analysis is conducted against the maintenance plan to identify and mitigate against unacceptable risks
  • Maintenance plan is communicated to stakeholders
       
Element: Integrate the maintenance plan with the logistic plan
  • Liaison with other logistic stakeholders is undertaken to ensure the maintenance plan is integrated into the larger logistic or operational plan
  • Maintenance plan is adjusted in accordance with changing operational need or the need to synchronise with other logistic functions
       


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 knowledge and skills, the range statement and the assessment guidelines for this Training Package.
