Description
This unit involves the skills and knowledge required to develop materiel sustainment processes and the attendant procedures within the organisation. It includes anticipating and confirming the need for development, the development processes; gathering and analysing information; determining direction; and drafting, releasing and promoting the process. It includes the initial development of those procedures that are integral to the processes. Materiel systems are a composite of equipment, skills and techniques capable of performing or supporting an operational role, or both. A complete materiel system includes all equipment, related facilities, materiel, software, services and personnel required for its operation and support, to the degree that it can be considered self-sufficient in its intended operational environment. There are no specific licensing or certification requirements applicable to this unit.
Notes
Elements and Performance Criteria
1Analyse the materiel sustainment environment
- 1.1 Operation of the materiel sustainment environment is analysed and key factors and issues are identified
- 1.2 External and internal factors likely to impact on materiel sustainment needs and capabilities are continually monitored and analysed
- 1.3 Stakeholders are identified and consulted on materiel and materiel systems needs and capabilities, in accordance with organisational policy and procedures
- 1.4 Legislation and organisational policy and procedures that may impact on materiel sustainment activity are identified and analysed
2Develop materiel sustainment processes and procedures
- 2.1 Consultation and negotiation with stakeholders is conducted in accordance with organisational policy and procedures
- 2.2 Materiel sustainment processes for materiel and materiel systems are developed and documented in accordance with organisational policy and procedures
- 2.3 Costing analysis of options is undertaken and documented in accordance with organisational policy and procedures
- 2.4 Procedures required to support the processes are identified, developed and documented
- 2.5 Processes and procedures are approved in accordance with organisational policy and procedures
3Communicate materiel sustainment processes and procedures
- 3.1 Stakeholders are fully informed of the outcomes, in accordance with organisational policy and procedures
- 3.2 Materiel sustainment processes and procedures are promulgated in accordance with organisational policy and procedures
- 3.3 Materiel sustainment processes and procedures are reviewed in accordance with organisational policy and procedures
RANGE STATEMENT
The range statement relates to the unit of competency as a whole. It allows for different work environments and situations that may affect performance.
Materiel sustainment may include:
the management and provision of products and services needed to meet the preparedness and performance requirements of a materiel system from the time of acceptance into operational service until disposal at minimised life cycle cost. Material sustainment may also be referred to as asset management and includes components of: sustainment management, engineering support, maintenance support, supply support and planning for disposal and/or carrying out end of life tasks
Stakeholders may include:
capability manager
contractors
customers
project managers
regulators
regulatory authorities
subordinates
supervisors
suppliers
team members
Materiel may include:
all items (including ships, tanks, self-propelled weapon, aircraft etc. and related spares, repair parts and support equipment but excluding real property, installations and utilities) necessary to equip, operate, maintain and support designated activities without distinction as to its application for administrative or operational purposes
Organisational policy and procedure may include:
Australian Standards
international standards
logistical support analysis
organisational instructions and standards
Legislative requirements may include:
regulations related to such matters as export and import licensing, taxes and duties
relevant federal, state and local government legislation and regulations including certification requirements
Costing may include:
labour
life cycle costs
money
outlay of expenditure
resources
time
Promulgated may include:
authorised
documented
endorsed
issued
published

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
Assessment must confirm the ability to:
adhere to relevant occupational health and safety requirements
analyse materiel sustainment environment
identify requirements for processes and procedures and adjust them as necessary to ensure effective and efficient performance of the processes
initiate and efficiently monitor processes
initiate any remedial action required
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 assessed in the workplace or in a simulated workplace environment
Access is required to:
computer and relevant software
legislation, guidelines, procedures and protocols relating to materiel sustainment
plans
workplace documentation
Method of assessment
Assessment of this unit must be undertaken by a registered training organisation
Where possible, assessment should be supported by questions to assess required knowledge. Questioning techniques should suit the language and literacy levels of the candidate
Assessment methods should reflect workplace demands such as literacy and the needs of particular groups
Assessment methods suitable for valid and reliable assessment of this unit of competency may include a combination of methods such as:
authenticated evidence from the workplace and/or training programs
case studies
demonstration
feedback from supervisors and peers regarding the candidate's ability
observation
portfolios
projects
questioning
reviews or reports prepared by the candidate
scenarios
simulation or role plays
