Manage motor sport operations


Application

This unit describes the performance outcomes required to manage motor sport operations and team compliance with motor sport regulatory requirements, and manage logistics and resourcing. It requires skills in motor sport team leadership and decision making.

It applies to those working in the motor sport industry.

No licensing, legislative, regulatory or certification requirements apply to this unit at the time of publication.


Elements and Performance Criteria

Elements

Elements describe the essential outcomes.

Performance Criteria

Performance criteria describe the performance needed to demonstrate achievement of the element. Where bold and italicised text is used, further information is detailed in the range of conditions section.

1. Plan logistics for motor sport operation

1.1 Work plan for team sport operation is developed in consultation with team members and is documented

1.2 Safety requirements, including motor sport regulatory body requirements, are sourced and interpreted

1.3 Resource and equipment requirements are researched and documented

1.4 Resource requirements are prioritised and matched to team budget, and priorities are confirmed or modified after consultation with team members

1.5 Operational plans, including instructions and delegations, are documented and amended according to team procedures and expectations

2. Oversee team activities during operation

2.1 Operational plans are implemented and team members briefed with regard to their roles and responsibilities

2.2 Operations are checked to ensure optimum use of human and physical resources

3. Evaluate operational process

3.1 Operational progress is evaluated against required quality of work and adherence to budget and time schedule, and is reported to required persons according to team requirements

3.2 Opportunities for preventative or corrective changes are identified using outcomes of monitoring activity and feedback from team members

3.3 Required changes are communicated to appropriate persons in a logical and accessible manner

3.4 Changes are monitored to confirm improvement to team efficiency

3.5 Records are maintained of key information relating to operational processes according to team requirements

Evidence of Performance

Before competency can be determined, individuals must demonstrate they can perform the following according to the standards defined in this unit’s elements, performance criteria, range of conditions and foundation skills:

complete the development of a significant operational procedure incorporating legislative safety requirements, including:

a full analysis of the proposed procedure

a step-by-step operational procedure

identifying and analysing supporting documents to the procedure

implement a process for an operational area of the motor sport team, including:

disseminating process information

monitoring operations

complete a review and update of a process for an operational area of the motor sport team, including:

system and sub-area/sub-system description

evaluating effectiveness of the process in achieving desired outcomes

legal, regulatory or intellectual property law requirements

documentation of modifications to improve the process.


Evidence of Knowledge

Individuals must be able to demonstrate knowledge of:

work health and safety (WHS) and occupational health and safety (OHS) requirements relating to managing motor sport operations, including selecting and using personal protective equipment (PPE).

procedures for leading team members, including:

leadership models

delegation strategies

key features of goal setting methods, such as specific, measurable, achievable, realistic, and timely (SMART)

methods for reviewing and reporting team member performance

decision making models and techniques

procedures for ensuring team compliance with regulatory body requirements, including compliance with national, state and technical regulations of the Confederation of Australian Motor Sports (CAMS)

procedures for determining team resource requirements

procedures for determining team logistical requirements, including logistics and procurement management techniques

procedures for evaluating operational processes, including analytical tools such as:

critical path analysis

cause and effect

force field analysis

Pareto analysis

strength, weakness, opportunity and threat (SWOT) analysis

decision trees.


Assessment Conditions

Assessors must satisfy NVR/AQTF assessor requirements.

Competency is to be assessed in the workplace or a simulated environment that accurately reflects performance in a real workplace setting.

Assessment must include direct observation of tasks.

Where assessment of competency includes third-party evidence, individuals must provide evidence that links them to the instances in which they have managed motor sport team operations, e.g. work plans.

Assessors must verify performance evidence through questioning on skills and knowledge to ensure correct interpretation and application.

The following resources must be made available:

motor sport team or simulated team

CAMS regulations.
