4. Maintain stock levels | 4.1. Stocks are monitored and maintained 4.2. Reserve stocks are transferred from reserve locations to warehouse to ensure build line/customer requirements are met 4.3. Requisition/order forms are completed for identified stock maintenance requirements 4.4. Unavailable stock is recorded and reported to the appropriate personnel for action 4.5. Warehouse stocks are consolidated efficiently |
This section describes the essential skills and knowledge and their level, required for this unit. |
Required skills |
speak clearly and directly in order to inform appropriate personnel of unavailable stock apply teamwork to a range of situations, including the consolidation of warehouse stock solve problems particularly in teams in order to meet performance indicators show initiative in adapting to changing work conditions or contexts particularly when working across a variety of work areas access, interpret and apply information on relevant organisation policies, procedures and instructions, particularly to ensure correct procedures are maintained concerning faulty or damaged parts manage time when planning, preparing and organising work priorities take responsibility for organising own work priorities. |
Required knowledge |
relevant Occupational Health and Safety and Environmental regulations and organisation policies and procedures needed to carry out work in a manner which ensures the safety of people, equipment and the environment. technical work documentation covering procedures, specifications, schedules and work plans or equivalent quality system documentation covering instructions, procedures, performance indicators and review processes or equivalent cost minimisation/waste avoidance policies, procedures and practices environmental protection requirements relating to the disposal of waste material established communication channels and protocols problem identification and resolution techniques identification and characteristics of parts organisation ordering procedures types of computers and operating procedures identification of faulty parts stock control systems and organisation procedures knowledge of organisation OHS policy and procedures. |
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. | |
Overview of assessment | |
Critical aspects for assessment and evidence required to demonstrate competency in this unit | Evidence of the following is essential: compliance with relevant legislative, regulations, standards, codes of practice and establish safe practices and organisation policies and procedures for managing personal work priorities maintaining a working knowledge of current work systems and practices working and communicating effectively and positively with others involved in the work applying, within authority, the requirements of the job or work role in relation to: achieving production goals achieving work quality goals responding positively to changing work requirements contributing effectively to cost reduction initiatives effectively applying problem solving techniques modify activities to cater for variations in organisation context and environment record parts and their details operate computer equipment conduct manual and/or stocktake maintain documentation / computer records detect stock discrepancies identify and deal with faulty or damaged stock apply organisation OHS policy and procedures maintain an effective, clean and safe work site. |
Context of and specific resources for assessment | assessment of the competency should take place in a safe working environment in a passenger motor vehicle manufacturing plant or simulated environment using tools/equipment/machinery required for the production process without undue disruption to the production process assessment is to occur under standard and authorised work practices, safety requirements and environmental constraints. |
Method of assessment | A range of assessment methods should be used to assess practical skills and knowledge. The following examples are appropriate for this unit: assessment methods must confirm consistency and accuracy of performance (over time and in a range of organisation relevant contexts) together with application of underpinning knowledge assessment methods must be by direct observation of tasks and include questioning on underpinning knowledge to ensure its correct interpretation and application assessment may be applied under project related conditions (real or simulated) and require evidence of process assessment must confirm a reasonable inference that competency is able not only to be satisfied under the particular circumstance, but is able to be transferred to other circumstances. |
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. Add any 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. | |
Organisationrequirements may include: | access and equity principles and practices environmental management (waste disposal, recycling and re-use guidelines) emergency and evacuation procedures equipment use procedures ethical standards legal obligations maintenance and storage procedures OHS requirements organisational and site guidelines policies and procedures relating to own role and responsibility procedural manuals quality assurance guidelines quality and continuous improvement processes and standards recording and reporting guidelines. |
