Evidence Required
The Evidence Guide identifies the critical aspects, knowledge and skills to be demonstrated to confirm competence for this unit. This is an integral part of the assessment of competence and should be read in conjunction with the Range Statements |
Critical aspects of evidence to be considered | Assessment must confirm sufficient knowledge of statutory requirements for facility maintenance within an organisation in the sport and recreation industry Assessment of performance should be over a period of time covering all categories of maintenance and all corresponding categories of the remaining Range Statements that are applicable in the learners environment In particular, assessment must confirm the ability to develop and implement a maintenance plan for significant work on a facility plan maintenance schedules for a diverse range of equipment establish systems for the storage of equipment respond appropriately to equipment failures provide suitable input into the selection of new equipment supervise service contractors negotiate work activities with all relevant personnel modify maintenance plans based on feedback accurately document all aspects of plan |
Interdependent assessment of units | This unit must be assessed after attainment of competency in the following unit(s) SRXRES003B Contribute to the planning, monitoring and control of resources This unit must be assessed in conjunction with the following unit(s) Nil For the purpose of integrated assessment, this unit may be assessed in conjunction with the following unit(s) Nil |
Required knowledge and skills | Required knowledge Relevant statutory requirements and codes of practice relating to facility construction and construction sites Environmental standards and requirements Safety standards of equipment and range of repair techniques relevant to the equipment being maintained Organisational procedure for reporting faulty equipment Recording/reporting procedures and requirements within the organisation Occupational Health and Safety (OH&S) standards, guidelines and codes of practice pertaining to reporting of unsafe equipment, recording of equipment repair and the repair and maintenance of facilities and equipment Methods of monitoring work of contractors and contract requirements when outsourcing repairs Schedule of facility operation which the contractors work should fall in line with Reorder levels for consumables Procedures for judging whether materials and equipment are fit for use and maintenance requirements and frequency of checks for the equipment Methods of equipment disposal Routine and non - routine schedules for maintenance Requirements within maintenance schedules and considerations when planning and timetabling a cleaning and maintenance schedule Communication channels within organisations Methods to determine current and future equipment needs and information sources which may be used Required Application of Occupational Health and Safety (OH&S) standards, statutory requirements, codes of practice and environmental requirements Development of implementation plans Report writing Prioritising work |
Resource implications | Physical resources - assessment of this competency requires access to a work environment with a facility requiring maintenance Human resources - assessment of this unit of competency will require human resources consistent with those outlined in the Assessment Guidelines. That is, assessors (or persons within the assessment team) must be competent in this unit but preferably be competent in the unit at the level above be current in their knowledge and understanding of the industry through provision of evidence of professional activity in the relevant area have attained the mandatory competency requirements for assessors under the Australian Quality Training Framework (AQTF) as specified in Standard 7.3 of the Standards for Registered Training Organisations |
Consistency in performance | Due to issues such as the diversity of the items around a facility that require maintenance, this unit of competency must be assessed over a period of time in order to ensure consistency of performance over the Range Statements and contexts applicable to coordinating facility and equipment acquisition and maintenance |
Context for assessment | This unit of competency must be assessed in the context of a sport or recreation organisation. For valid and reliable assessment the sport or recreation organisation should closely replicate the work environment. The environment should be safe with the hazards, circumstances and equipment likely to be encountered in a real workplace Assessment of this unit of competence will usually include observation of processes and procedures, oral and/or written questioning on required knowledge and skills and consideration of required attitudes Where performance is not directly observed and/or is required to be demonstrated over a "period of time" and/or in a "number of locations", any evidence should be authenticated by colleagues, supervisors, clients or other appropriate persons |
