Unit of Competency MEM14002B - Undertake basic process planning
Description This unit covers reviewing process specifications and determining the production sequence.
Employability Skills This unit contains employability skills.
Learning Outcomes and Application This unit applies to one of a range of processes in manufacturing: machining, pressing, assembly and to a stage of the overall production process. It does not apply to interfacing between processes.If planning is based on engineering drawings and supporting engineering data, appropriate skills units should be accessed.Band: BUnit Weight: 8
Duration and Setting X weeks, nominally xx hours, delivered in a classroom/online/blended learning setting.

Elements of Competency Performance Criteria              
Element: Review process specifications
  • Supporting engineering and production data is examined, where required.
  • The production processes to be used are determined.
  • Specifications are obtained and examined.
       
Element: Determine production sequence
  • Steps required for the process are identified and flow charts are produced where required in accordance with standard operating procedures.
  • Material and parts lists are prepared in accordance with standard operating procedures.
  • Tooling and/or equipment requirements are documented in accordance with standard operating procedures.
  • Quality assurance steps and specifications are identified and incorporated into process steps.
  • Process steps are documented and clearly represented in accordance with standard operating procedures.
       


Evidence Required

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.

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

Overview of assessment

A person who demonstrates competency in this unit must be able to undertake basic process planning.

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

Assessors must be satisfied that the candidate can competently and consistently perform all elements of the unit as specified by the criteria, including required knowledge, and be capable of applying the competency in new and different situations and contexts.

Context of and specific resources for assessment

This unit may be assessed on the job, off the job or a combination of both on and off the job. Where assessment occurs off the job, that is the candidate is not in productive work, then an appropriate simulation must be used where the range of conditions reflects realistic workplace situations. The competencies covered by this unit would be demonstrated by an individual working alone or as part of a team. The assessment environment should not disadvantage the candidate.

This unit could be assessed in conjunction with any other units addressing the safety, quality, communication, materials handling, recording and reporting associated with basic process planning or other units requiring the exercise of the skills and knowledge covered by this unit.

Method of assessment

Assessors should gather a range of evidence that is valid, sufficient, current and authentic. Evidence can be gathered through a variety of ways including direct observation, supervisor's reports, project work, samples and questioning. Questioning techniques should not require language, literacy and numeracy skills beyond those required in this unit of competency. The candidate must have access to all tools, equipment, materials and documentation required. The candidate must be permitted to refer to any relevant workplace procedures, product and manufacturing specifications, codes, standards, manuals and reference materials.

Guidance information for assessment


Submission Requirements

List each assessment task's title, type (eg project, observation/demonstration, essay, assignment, checklist) and due date here

(add new lines for each of the assessment tasks)


Assessment Tasks

Copy and paste from the following data to produce each assessment task. Write these in plain English and spell out how, when and where the task is to be carried out, under what conditions, and what resources are needed. Include guidelines about how well the candidate has to perform a task for it to be judged satisfactory.

Required skills

Look for evidence that confirms skills in:

obtaining, reading and interpreting engineering and production data

preparing flow charts

communicating

planning

assessing

reading and interpreting engineering specifications

organising information

prioritising

Required knowledge

Look for evidence that confirms knowledge of:

production processes found within the organisation

tooling and/or equipment requirements for workplace processes

quality assurance requirements

safe workplace practices and procedures

The range statement relates to the unit of competency as a whole. It allows for different work environments and situations that may affect performance. Bold italicised wording, if used in the performance criteria, is detailed below. Essential operating conditions that may be present with training and assessment (depending on the work situation, needs of the candidate, accessibility of the item, and local industry and regional contexts) may also be included.

Production processes

Work planned over a specified timeframe, taking into account required and available resources

Steps

Steps and milestones against which progress can be checked

Copy and paste from the following performance criteria to create an observation checklist for each task. When you have finished writing your assessment tool every one of these must have been addressed, preferably several times in a variety of contexts. To ensure this occurs download the assessment matrix for the unit; enter each assessment task as a column header and place check marks against each performance criteria that task addresses.
