Learning Outcomes and Application | This unit applies to people who require significant engineering skills and knowledge to plan and manage supply, scheduling and purchasing of materials across all forms of manufacturing and engineering. Typical applications would be where there are:many material inputs, major assembly lines or manufacturing cells, such as whitegoods and vehicle manufacturingheavy and light fabrication involving significant use of materialrequirements to either determine, select or interpret technical specifications and standards for purchasing, scheduling and production planning. The unit can provide technical support training where the planning, scheduling and purchasing is done in an engineering or manufacturing organisation following lean principles. In this situation it is recommended that the unit be co-delivered with appropriate Manufacturing Skills Australia (MSA) Competitive Manufacturing units of competency. Prior or concurrently developed capability in personal and electronic communication, self-directed and group activities, planning and scheduling, performance analysis, process control and improvement, and an understanding of technology, skills and techniques, and quality aspects required by operations is required. | ||
