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!

TLIX5037A - Plan logistic support for deployed operations

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

Analyse the logistic requirement

  1. Operational requirement is analysed in order to establish the scope and intent of logistic support
  2. Operating environment is identified and information is sought to establish the operating and logistic factors relating to the operation
  3. Limitations and constraints are determined in order to establish what courses of actions are feasible and realistic
  4. Critical facts and assumptions are made in order to allow planning to progress in the absence of developed knowledge of the current situation

Analyse risks to logistic support

  1. Risk analysis is conducted to identify and mitigate against unacceptable risks in accordance with organisational policy and procedures
  2. Liaison with agencies involved in the operation's logistic is undertaken to ensure the most effective coordination of effort
  3. Local population and organisations in the operating area are analysed to identify any possible disruption to logistic support

Develop the logistic plan

  1. Logistic situation is reviewed to inform planning
  2. Planning timeline is prepared to guide planning activities and to ensure sufficient time is allowed to disseminate information and subsequent preparation of personnel and equipment
  3. Logistic concept is created and based upon the analysis and the principles of logistic, operational suitability, feasibility and acceptance by management
  4. Logistic plan is developed in accordance with organisational policy and procedures
  5. Plan is adjusted in accordance with changing operational need
  6. Contingency plans are developed
  7. Logistic plan is communicated to stakeholders

Instructions to Assessors

Evidence Guide

The evidence guide provides advice on assessment and must be read in conjunction with the performance criteria, required knowledge and skills, the range statement and the assessment guidelines for this Training Package.

Critical aspects for assessment and evidence required to demonstrate competency in this unit

The evidence required to demonstrate competency in this unit must be relevant to and satisfy all of the requirements of the elements and performance criteria of this unit and include demonstration of:

applying the planning process outlined within the elements and performance criteria in response to a logistic support task in a deployed setting

applying organisational policy and procedure relating to planning of logistic support

Competency should be demonstrated over time and should be observed in a range of actual or simulated work contexts

Context of and specific resources for assessment

Competency should be demonstrated on at least one occasion covering the scope of the unit of competence

Resources for assessment include:

a range of relevant exercises, case studies and/or other simulated practical and knowledge assessment, and/or

access to an appropriate range of relevant operational situations in the workplace

In both real and simulated environments, access is required to:

relevant and appropriate materials and equipment, and

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

Method of assessment

Assessment of this unit must be undertaken by a registered training organisation

As a minimum, assessment of knowledge must be conducted through appropriate written/oral tests

Practical assessment must occur:

through activities in an appropriately simulated environment, and/or

in an appropriate range of situations in the workplace

Required Skills and Knowledge

REQUIRED KNOWLEDGE AND SKILLS

This describes the essential knowledge and skills and their level required for this unit.

Required knowledge:

Logistic concepts

Specialist knowledge of the organisation, function and logistic capabilities

Organisational policy and procedure pertaining to logistics

Specialist understanding of customer and stakeholder requirements

Risks to logistic support

Organisational role relevant to specialist logistic support

Environment consideration in planning logistic support

Organisational writing conventions

Planning process

Required skills:

Interpret instructions and apply to actions and tasks

Prepare and issue instructions that clearly communicate intent and operational tasks

Use problem-solving skills to apply a broad range of problem-solving strategies to planning outcomes

Analyse the complexities of a task such as limitations, freedoms, vulnerabilities, environmental considerations and time limitations

Undertake analysis to determine where internal and external factors impact on the logistic support requirements, and adjust planning accordingly

Use numeracy skills to accurately analyse and validate information

Use organisational skills to manage own planning tasks in concert with organisational requirements

Interpret policies and procedures

Make decisive, informed decisions that align with organisational requirements

Move forward despite the difficulty of the planning task
