List the assessment methods to be used and the context and resources required for assessment. Copy and paste the relevant sections from the evidence guide below and then re-write these in plain English.
ELEMENT | PERFORMANCE CRITERIA |
Elements describe the essential outcomes. | Performance criteria describe the performance needed to demonstrate achievement of the element. |
1. Obtain data for process capability study | 1.1 Identify the process requiring capability analysis 1.2 Obtain process capability data |
2. Analyse data | 2.1 Identify causes of systematic variation in liaison with relevant personnel 2.2 Develop solutions to eliminate/minimise systematic variation in liaison with relevant people |
3. Take action to improve process capability | 3.1 Develop plans to implement solutions 3.2 Liaise with relevant people to implement solutions 3.3 Gain necessary approvals as required 3.4 Monitor implementation and make adjustments as required 3.5 Determine new/revised process capability 3.6 Implement revised process capability regime |
Evidence of the ability to:
implement and review either ONE complex process capability system or SEVERAL smaller systems and make process improvements using process capability as a tool for monitoring and improvement or a suitable project
provide a portfolio of evidence to show that the implementation and review has included process capability studies, the improvement to process capability, and how the improvements were implemented.
Note: If a specific volume or frequency is not stated, then evidence must be provided at least once.
To complete the unit requirements safely and effectively, the individual must:
outline data collection and processing methods and techniques
describe concepts of variability and normal distribution
describe three sigma or six sigma processes
explain how to recognise assignable causes (random and non-random results)
outline causes of random variation
identify causes of different types of non-random results
understand process capability sufficiently to translate data into variations in the process and determine methods of controlling them.
Gather evidence to demonstrate consistent performance in conditions that are safe and replicate the workplace. Noise levels, production flow, interruptions and time variances must be typical of those experienced in the Support field of work and include access to an organisation using process capability.
Assessors must satisfy NVR/AQTF assessor requirements.
