Description
This unit involves the skills and knowledge required to plan logistic support involving numerous logistic elements on deployment in support of significant organisational operations. There are no specific licensing or certification requirements applicable to this unit.
Notes
Elements and Performance Criteria
1Analyse the logistics requirement
- 1.1 Operational requirement is analysed in order to establish the scope and intent of logistic support
- 1.2 The operating environment is identified and analysed to assess the effect on delivery of logistic support
- 1.3 Infrastructure within the operating environment is analysed to identify its potential to support logistic operations and/or vulnerabilities that require consideration in planning
- 1.4 Risks to the delivery of logistic support are identified and analysed to determine their likelihood of occurrence and the potential consequences for the logistic operation
- 1.5 Critical facts and assumptions are made in order to allow planning to progress in the absence of developed knowledge of the current situation
- 1.6 Specialist logistic requirements are determined so that the different logistic element estimates are developed and considered in the operations sustainability requirements
- 1.7 Logistic capabilities are analysed against operational requirements to identify critical shortfalls and/or define the limits of logistic support
- 1.8 Logistic planning information is communicated to other planning staff and management throughout the operation
2Develop the logistic plan
- 2.1 Logistic information management systems are utilised to compile and analyse planning data and information
- 2.2 Options are developed, analysed and tested to establish the broad advantages and disadvantages
- 2.3 Tasks, priorities, and decisive points are identified and validated
- 2.4 The preferred course of action is identified
- 2.5 The integration of contracted support is considered for inclusion in the plan
- 2.6 Policy and procedure are developed to support the logistic activity within the operational area of deployment
- 2.7 Logistic organisational structure is developed to meet the estimates within organisational resource constraints
- 2.8 Control arrangements are established within the framework of operational command and management
- 2.9 The logistic plan is developed to support the implementation of the selected course of action
- 2.10 Plan is adjusted in accordance with changing operational need
- 2.11 Contingency plans are developed
- 2.12 Logistics plan is communicated to stakeholders
