This unit involves the skills and knowledge required to analyse and apply knowledge of integrated logistics support in accordance with relevant organisational policy and procedures.

The application of this knowledge is required by people who are not integrated logistics support specialists but who need the knowledge to inform their decision making. The application of integrated logistics support knowledge is specific to a variety of component processes in material logistics activities.

This unit was developed for logistics specialists working within materiel logistics but is applicable to individuals in broader logistics roles.

Typically these individuals work independently or as part of a team under direct and/or indirect supervision, use discretion and judgement, and take responsibility for the quality of their outputs.

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

Elements describe the essential outcomes.

Performance criteria describe the performance needed to demonstrate achievement of the element.

1

Access and interpret relevant integrated logistics support information

1.1

Relevant integrated logistics support requirements are identified and obtained

1.2

Integrated logistics information obtained is analysed to determine relevance and application to the organisation

1.3

Outcomes of the analysis are documented and recommendations relevant to integrated logistics support are determined

2

Use knowledge of integrated logistics support

2.1

Integrated logistics support requirements and recommendations relevant to materiel and materiel logistics are applied in accordance with organisational policy and procedures

2.2

Effectiveness of recommendations is assessed, reviewed and recorded in accordance with organisational policy and procedures

2.3

Recommendations are adjusted as required and documented for future application in accordance with organisational policy and procedures

Evidence required to demonstrate competence in this unit must be relevant to and satisfy all of the requirements of the elements and performance criteria on at least one occasion and include:

adhering to relevant integrated logistics support requirements

analysing and interpreting integrated logistics support information to determine where internal and external factors impact on integrated logistics requirements, and adjusting planning accordingly

applying integrated logistics support knowledge to work being performed and to guide problem solving

consulting and negotiating with internal and external stakeholders and resolving potential areas of conflict or concern to ensure overall objectives are achieved

displaying resilience by continuing to move forward despite criticism or setbacks

focusing on clear communication of key integrated logistics support information, presenting information confidently and selecting appropriate medium for communication to a range of audiences

identifying relationships between organisational goals and recognising how own work contributes to achieving these goals

using appropriate information technology and software.

Evidence required to demonstrate competence in this unit must be relevant to and satisfy all of the requirements of the elements and performance criteria and include knowledge of:

As a minimum, assessors must satisfy applicable regulatory requirements, which include requirements in the Standards for Registered Training Organisations current at the time of assessment.

As a minimum, assessment must satisfy applicable regulatory requirements, which include requirements in the Standards for Registered Training Organisations current at the time of assessment.

Assessment must occur in workplace operational situations where it is appropriate to do so; where this is not appropriate, assessment must occur in simulated workplace operational situations that replicate workplace conditions.

Assessment processes and techniques must be appropriate to the language, literacy and numeracy requirements of the work being performed and the needs of the candidate.

Resources for assessment include:

a range of relevant exercises, case studies and/or simulations

relevant and appropriate materials, tools, equipment and personal protective equipment currently used in industry

applicable documentation including workplace procedures, regulations, codes of practice and operation manuals

computer and relevant software

legislation, guidelines, procedures and protocols relating to integrated logistic support

integrated logistics support plans.
