Elements of Competency Performance Criteria              
Element: Identify the system constraint (bottleneck)
  • Identify desired output from process or system
  • Determine throughput of process or system steps
  • Identify capacity-constrained resource
  • Confirm optimum throughput for this capacity-constrained resource
       
Element: Manage capacity- constrained resource (drum)
  • Determine required time buffers for capacity-constrained resource
  • Translate time buffer into physical and/or process buffers
  • Establish required buffers
  • Examine capacity-constrained resource to ensure optimum use of capacity
       
Element: Determine schedule based on capacity-constrained resource
  • Determine supply schedule appropriate for capacity-constrained resource
  • Determine delivery schedule based on capacity of capacity-constrained resource
  • Compare delivery schedule with externally required delivery rate
  • Take action to improve alignment between process or system and buffers and schedules
       
Element: Examine operation of system or process
  • Determine throughput of process or system steps
  • Identify any additional and/or new capacity-constrained resource
  • Apply theory of constraints in continuous improvement cycle
       

Submission Requirements

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

Assessment task 1: [title]      Due date:

(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.
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.
