Develop and review integrated logistics support plans


Application

This unit involves the skills and knowledge required to develop and review integrated logistics support plans and associated subordinate plans to ensure efficient and effective delivery of integrated logistics support across the materiel and materiel system life cycle.

This unit was developed for integrated logistics support 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. All activities are carried out in accordance with relevant organisational policy and procedures.

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