Elements of Competency Performance Criteria              
Element: Determine scope for change
  • Review own work activities and decision points to identify areas of potential for circularity improvement
  • Identify system of processes and interactions relevant to each area of potential
  • Liaise with others to determine supports and constraints within the current context likely to affect changes in areas of potential
       
Element: Identify customer perspectives
  • Identify internal and/or external customers for the areas of potential for circularity improvements
  • Source and analyse information to determine stated customer needs, desired outcomes and perspectives in relation to areas of potential
  • Investigate unarticulated needs, wants and perspectives of customer
  • Apply questions or processes to elicit detailed understanding of customer needs, wants and perspectives
       
Element: Generate ideas on circularity improvements
  • Consult with stakeholders and, where appropriate, specialists to generate ideas and alternatives
  • Generate ideas on how to meet some or all aspects of customer perspectives using existing processes and/or equipment
  • Generate ideas on how to meet some or all aspects of customer perspectives based on different processes and/or equipment
  • Challenge assumptions about customer needs and wants to generate alternative versions of customer perspective
  • Generate ideas on how to meet alternative customer perspectives
  • Generate ideas for incremental changes and radical changes
       
Element: Determine improvement options
  • Select ideas with potential to improve circularity within current context and within own sphere of decision making
  • Evaluate selected ideas in terms of risks and intended and unintended impacts, outcomes and costs to determine options likely to deliver overall system benefits
  • Identify where beneficial options do not clearly align to customer stated needs and plan to inform, influence and negotiate with customer
  • Facilitate communications with customer to resolve problems and agree on option/s to be implemented
       
Element: Plan actions to effect change
  • Prepare action plan for agreed option/s, detailing key stakeholders, approvals, resources and information needed and steps to be taken
  • Examine ideas outside own sphere of decision making to determine potential improvements in circularity
  • Identify personnel with responsibility and/or influence relevant to potential improvements outside own sphere of decision-making
  • Prepare information to promote understanding of and engagement with potential improvements in circularity using style and format suitable for responsible personnel

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.
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.
