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. |

Evidence Required
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 |
Range Statement
The range statement relates to the unit of competency as a whole. It allows for different work environments and situations that may affect performance. | |
Stakeholders may include: | capability manager contractors customers project managers regulators regulatory authorities subordinates supervisors suppliers team members |
Materiel may include: | all items (including ships, tanks, self-propelled weapon, aircraft etc. and related spares, repair parts and support equipment but excluding real property, installations and utilities) necessary to equip, operate, maintain and support designated activities without distinction as to its application for administrative or operational purposes |

Logistics support analysis is: | the process for identifying and analysing the functional supportability requirements consistent with the goals of the integrated logistic support program. Logistic support analysis also describes the process for coordinated development of logistics related task data, and the processing of that data to define logistics resource requirements. Logistic support analysis defines analytical process for the preparation for in-service support and disposal, and the interface with Supportability Assessments (Supportability Test and Evaluation) |
