Tips for gathering evidence to demonstrate your skills

The important thing to remember when gathering evidence is that the more evidence the better - that is, the more evidence you gather to demonstrate your skills, the more confident an assessor can be that you have learned the skills not just at one point in time, but are continuing to apply and develop those skills (as opposed to just learning for the test!). Furthermore, one piece of evidence that you collect will not usualy demonstrate all the required criteria for a unit of competency, whereas multiple overlapping pieces of evidence will usually do the trick!

Evidence required to demonstrate competence in this unit must be relevant to and satisfy the requirements of the elements and performance criteria and include the ability, across an organisation or department/section, to:

analyse organisation needs and match to enterprise control system features

determine critical features required in enterprise control system

modify system/have system modified as a result of trials or changing needs.

Must provide evidence that demonstrates sufficient knowledge to interact with relevant personnel and be able to develop and implement new enterprise control systems, including knowledge of:

capability of resource planning/SCADA systems, as appropriate

information and control needs of organisation/process

project management

support/training/skill development mechanisms available for access by personnel.

Range Statement

This field allows for different work environments and conditions that may affect performance. Essential operating conditions that may be present (depending on the work situation, needs of the candidate, accessibility of the item, and local industry and regional contexts) are included.

Competitive systems and practices include one or more of:

lean operations

agile operations

preventative and predictive maintenance approaches

statistical process control systems, including six sigma and three sigma

Just in Time (JIT), kanban and other pull-related operations control systems

supply, value, and demand chain monitoring and analysis

5S

continuous improvement (kaizen)

breakthrough improvement (kaizen blitz)

cause/effect diagrams

overall equipment effectiveness (OEE)

takt time

process mapping

problem solving

run charts

standard procedures

current reality tree.

SCADA refers to:

a number of systems which automatically collect critical process data, perform required mathematical manipulations on it and then make control decisions and/or give required information personnel for action

In the continuous operations sector, the SCADA system is sometimes integrated into other sophisticated computer control systems, such as distributed control system (DCS) and indeed these systems do merge in advanced systems. These organisations may simply refer to their SCADA as the DCS or other similar term (such as the proprietary name of the computer system).

Stages where value stream actions may occur include one or more of:

sales outlet/representative

information gathering, data analysis and research

product design

raw material sourcing

intermediate processing

final assembler/collation/preparation

support services (e.g. accounting, finance and legal)

storage and delivery to customer

after market support.

Items in the value stream include one or more of:

physical elements of the production system, such as sites, workstations, equipment and material, including stock, work in progress and finished products

information needed to meet customer requirements, such as designs, drawings, work instructions, standard operating procedures (SOPs), standards, material lists and pricing

information not directly related to current customer requirements but required by the organisation.
