Unit of Competency | MSACMT623A - Develop a levelled pull system of manufacturing |
---|---|---|---|
Description | This unit covers the knowledge and skills required to develop and level a demand pull system of manufacturing. | ||
Employability Skills | This unit contains employability skills. | ||
Learning Outcomes and Application | This unit covers the production planning skills needed in a manufacturing enterprise to develop and level a demand pull system which meets the business needs of the enterprise. This may apply to the initial development of a pull system, or the continuous improvement of an existing system.This unit primarily requires the application of skills associated with communication in gathering, analysing and applying information and consulting with stakeholders. Problem solving, initiative and enterprise, and planning and organising are required to determine effective manufacturing sequences and flow systems. This unit also requires aspects of self management and learning to ensure feedback and new learning is integrated into system designs. Depending on the enterprise the following units may also be relevant:MSACMT622A Design a process layoutMSACMS601A Analyse and map a value chainMSACMT280A Undertake root cause analysisMSACMT621A Develop a Just in Time (JIT) system | ||
Duration and Setting | X weeks, nominally xx hours, delivered in a classroom/online/blended learning setting. |

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 describes the underpinning knowledge and skills that must be demonstrated to prove competence. it is essential for assessment and must be read in conjunction with the performance criteria, the range statement and the assessment guidelines of the relevant training package | ||
Overview of assessment requirements | Assessment should confirm the ability to develop or further develop a balanced, levelled pull system of manufacturing. | |
What are the specific resource requirements for this unit? | Access to an organisation using/intending to use a balanced pull system of manufacturing. | |
What critical aspects of evidence is required to demonstrate competency in this unit? | Evidence of undertaking the development or redevelopment of a pull system development should be available. | |
In what context should assessment occur? | Assessment will need to occur in an organisation using a balanced pull system of manufacturing. Assessment should occur over a time period appropriate to determine the successful operation of the developed pull system. Assessment can be by a combination of project, portfolio and direct observation of the developed system. | |
Are there any other units which could or should be assessed with this unit or which relate directly to this unit? | Depending on the enterprise the following units may also be relevant and could be assessed with this unit: MSACMT622A Design a process layout MSACMS601A Analyse and map a value chain MSACMT280A Undertake root cause analysis MSACMT621A Develop a Just in Time (JIT) system | |
What method of assessment should apply? | Assessors must be satisfied that the person can consistently perform the unit as a whole, as defined by the Elements, Performance Criteria, skills and knowledge. A holistic approach should be taken to the assessment. Assessors should gather sufficient, fair, valid, reliable, authentic and current evidence from a range of sources. Sources of evidence may include direct observation, reports from supervisors, peers and colleagues, project work, samples, organisation records and questioning. Assessment should not require language, literacy or numeracy skills beyond those required for the unit. The assessee will have access to all techniques, procedures, information, resources and aids which would normally be available in the workplace. The method of assessment should be discussed and agreed with the assessee prior to the commencement of the assessment. | |
What evidence is required for demonstration of consistent performance? | Generally one significant pull development project or a number of continuous improvements should generate sufficient evidence. |

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 | |

Required knowledge | |
processing requirements of products capabilities of equipment Capabilities and skills of the workforce production planning |
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. | ||
Product | Product includes individual products and product groups/ families. | |
Inventories | Inventories within process may include: cycle stock which reflects the replenishment quantity and frequency buffer stock to meet demand variability and forecast errors safety stock required to guard against quality and delivery failures upstream | |
Pacemaker | Pacemaker processes is that process which sets the pace for the flow of manufacturing work through the enterprise. Pacemaker processes may include but are not limited to: process steps which are significantly longer than other production stages critical technical or quality steps in the production process | |
Balance work | Balance work means balancing: time of production effort required by workforce and equipment work organisation job design quality considerations waste and other cost considerations between stations/equipment/processes to achieve levelled pull within allowable time per product. Balance work consideration also means: undertaking adequate consultation with stakeholders meeting OHS and environmental requirements any other regulatory and legislative requirements |
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.
