Description
This unit involves the skills and knowledge required to formulate materiel logistics strategies across the life cycle. These strategies are formulated to ensure that the materiel and materiel systems are able to meet their stated capability requirement. 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. Materiel logistics is the life cycle management of materiel to achieve the stated objectives of the capability managers. There are no specific licensing or certification requirements applicable to this unit.
Notes
Elements and Performance Criteria
1Analyse the materiel logistics environment
- 1.1 Operational concept of the materiel and materiel systems are analysed, and key factors and issues are identified for consideration and/or response
- 1.2 External and internal factors likely to impact on materiel logistics needs and capabilities are continually monitored and analysed
- 1.3 Key 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 logistics activity are identified and analysed
2Develop materiel logistics strategies
- 2.1 Consultation and negotiation with key stakeholders is conducted in accordance with organisational policy and procedures
- 2.2 Strategic objectives are defined and documented in materiel logistics strategies
- 2.3 Costing analysis of strategic options is managed and documented in accordance with organisational policy and procedures
3Establish priorities for materiel logistics strategies
- 3.1 Strategic priorities are developed and documented that support the organisation's materiel logistics objectives
- 3.2 Strategic priorities are analysed to ensure they reflect the capability requirements of key stakeholders, in accordance with organisational policy and procedures
- 3.3 Opportunities for strategic alliances and cooperative ventures are incorporated into the strategies
4Communicate materiel logistics strategies
- 4.1 Strategies are explained to key stakeholders
- 4.2 Strategies are promoted across the organisation through a variety of communication channels, in accordance with organisational policy and procedures
5Evaluate materiel logistics strategies
- 5.1 Materiel logistics strategies are regularly evaluated in accordance with organisational policy and procedures
- 5.2 Strategies are amended and documented in accordance with organisational policy and procedures
