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 use ERP, MRP planning software systems in manufacturing. Competency in this unit cannot be claimed until all prerequisites have been satisfied. |
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 to 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 using ERP, MRP planning software systems in manufacturing, 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. 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 to be capable of applying the competency in new and different situations and contexts. 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 will have access to all tools, equipment, materials and documentation required. The candidate will be permitted to refer to any relevant workplace procedures, product and manufacturing specifications, codes, standards, manuals and reference materials. |

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: using basic computer functions analysing communicating undertaking production planning and control prioritising reading and interpreting recording |
Required knowledge |
Look for evidence that confirms knowledge of: technical knowledge and skills needed to operate process hierarchy of ERP, MRP or similar systems and operation information available from and business activities exercised by/through the ERP, MRP system closed loop manufacturing system basics business planning, demand, resources Master Production Scheduling (MPS) Materials Requirement Planning (MRP) Capacity Requirement Planning (CRP) system inputs: bills of material need for accuracy inventory statistics planning data introduction to capacity management production activity control system outputs: planned orders order action firm/tentative Just in Time (JIT) techniques production smoothing single unit flow Kanban set up time reduction (SMED) lead time reduction production control methods: types master schedules control by exception computer control visual control combination MRP2/Kanban system shop floor - day-to-day - Kanban scheduling: techniques order release policies centralised decentralised inventory control: raw work-in-process finished goods lean manufacture and inventory inventory costs procurement material control techniques ABC (Pareto) Analysis Economic Order Quantity (EOQ) Min-Max systems Kanban - Just in Time cycle counting |
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. | |
System | Includes ERP, MRP or similar software programs |
Appropriate actions | Appropriate actions are actions in regard to production schedules, materials management, purchasing and ordering, transport and logistics that are needed as a result of information obtained from resource planning software |
Resource planning information | May include information from ERP, MRP or similar systems that provide information on master production schedule, materials requirement plan, capacity requirement plan, bills of material, inventory control and statistics, order action, schedules |
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.
