Tips for gathering evidence to demonstrate your skills

The important thing to remember when gathering evidence is that the more evidence the better - that is, the more evidence you gather to demonstrate your skills, the more confident an assessor can be that you have learned the skills not just at one point in time, but are continuing to apply and develop those skills (as opposed to just learning for the test!). Furthermore, one piece of evidence that you collect will not usualy demonstrate all the required criteria for a unit of competency, whereas multiple overlapping pieces of evidence will usually do the trick!

ICTSUS803 - Research strategies using SAP solutions for sustainable economic and environmental outcomes

What evidence can you provide to prove your understanding of each of the following citeria?

Scope enterprise for establishing business case for integrating SAP into business operations

  1. Critically analyse current enterprise operations to determine what processes or practices can be realised using SAP to ensure long-term sustainability within organisational guidelines
  2. Research and critically analyse range of alternative SAP product and services solutions, including risk analysis and relative comparisons to prepare business case for validation with stakeholders
  3. Produce preliminary results of scoping analysis with recommended priority of SAP solutions that would optimise business sustainability and deliver competitive advantage
