Qualification -
Unit of Competency TLIX5004A - Develop integrated logistics support processes and procedures
Description This unit involves the skills and knowledge required to develop integrated logistics support processes and the attendant procedures within the organisation. It includes anticipating and confirming the need for development, the development processes; gathering and analysing information; determining direction; and drafting, releasing and promoting the processes. It also includes the initial development of those procedures that are integral to the processes. Integrated logistics support is a disciplined and iterative approach to materiel management, which addresses supportability throughout the life cycle of a materiel system, with the aim of ensuring operational and preparedness requirements are met, at a minimised life cycle cost, with regulatory, legislative and contractual constraints. Materiel systems are a composite of equipment, skills and techniques capable of performing or supporting an operational role, or both. A complete materiel system includes all equipment, related facilities, materiel, software, services and personnel required for its operation and support, to the degree that it can be considered self-sufficient in its intended operational environment. There are no specific licensing or certification requirements applicable to this unit.
Employability Skills This unit contains employability skills.
Learning Outcomes and Application This unit was developed for integrated logistics support specialists working within materiel logistics but is applicable to any individual in broader logistic roles.Typically these individuals must demonstrate the ability to work independently or as part of a team under direct and/or indirect supervision, use discretion and judgement, and take responsibility for the quality of their outputs. All activities are carried out in accordance with relevant organisational policy and procedures.
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 provides advice on assessment and must be read in conjunction with the performance criteria, required knowledge and skills, the range statement and the assessment guidelines for this Training Package.

Critical aspects for assessment and evidence required to demonstrate competency in this unit

Assessment must confirm the ability to:

adhere to relevant occupational health and safety requirements

identify the requirements for processes and procedures and adjust them as necessary to ensure effective and efficient performance of the processes

initiate and efficiently monitor processes

initiate any remedial action required

Competency should be demonstrated over time and should be observed in a range of actual or simulated work contexts

Context of and specific resources for assessment

Competency should be assessed in the workplace or in a simulated workplace environment

Access is required to:

computer and relevant software

legislation, guidelines, procedures and protocols relating to integrated logistic support

plans

workplace documentation

Method of assessment

Assessment of this unit must be undertaken by a registered training organisation

Where possible, assessment should be supported by questions to assess required knowledge. Questioning techniques should suit the language and literacy levels of the candidate

Assessment methods should reflect workplace demands such as literacy and the needs of particular groups

Assessment methods suitable for valid and reliable assessment of this unit of competency may include a combination of methods such as:

authenticated evidence from the workplace and/or training programs

case studies

demonstration

feedback from supervisors and peers regarding the candidate's ability

observation

portfolios

projects

questioning

reviews or reports prepared by the candidate

scenarios

simulation or role plays

Submission Requirements

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

(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.
