Description
This unit describes the application of the required skills and knowledge to develop, trial and produce suitable documentation to support the maintenance, tooling and development operations required for the design, development and production of bus/truck trailers.No licensing, legislative, regulatory or certification requirements apply to this unit at the time of publication.
Notes
Elements and Performance Criteria
1. Identify documentation requirements
  • 1.1. The need for documentation is identified and evaluated in consultation with management, production, development and maintenance staff, and in accordance with organisation requirements
  • 1.2. Specifications and justification for documentation and associated procedures are prepared ensuring that the documentation will facilitate efficient and effective communication between the relevant internal and/or external persons involved in the processes concerned
  • 1.3. Approval is sought from appropriate personnel for the proposed documentation arrangements, and appropriate changes made, as required
2. Develop draft documentation, procedures and usage instructions
  • 2.1. Suitable documentation and associated procedures are developed in accordance with the approved specification for proposed arrangements
3. Trial and modify draft documentation, procedures and usage instructions
  • 3.1. Draft documentation, procedures and usage instructions are prepared and trialled with the intended users in accordance with company requirements
  • 3.2. The draft documentation, procedures and usage instructions are appropriately modified in accordance with feedback provided by the intended users to meet work quality goals
  • 3.3. A report on the outcomes of the trial of draft documentation, procedures and usage instructions is prepared and approval sought from appropriate personnel for implementation of the proposed arrangement in accordance with company procedures
4. Produce documentation and usage instructions
  • 4.1. Documentation and usage instructions as approved are produced according to specifications and company procedures
  • 4.2. Intended users are instructed in the use of the documentation in accordance with company requirement
5. Store and distribute documentation and usage instructions
  • 5.1. Documentation and usage instructions, as approved, are stored and distributed in accordance with company requirements

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

Evidence of the following is essential:

compliance with relevant legislative, regulations, standards, codes of practice and establish safe practices and organisation policies and procedures for managing personal work priorities
maintaining a working knowledge of current work systems and practices
working and communicating effectively and positively with others involved in the work

applying, within authority, the requirements of the job or work role in relation to:

achieving production goals
achieving work quality goals
responding positively to changing work requirements
contributing effectively to cost reduction initiatives
effectively applying problem solving techniques
modify activities to cater for variations in organisation context and environment
develop, trial, modify and produce draft documentation
develop and store final documentation for procedures and production.

Context of and specific resources for assessment
assessment of the competency should take place in a safe working environment in a passenger motor vehicle manufacturing plant or simulated environment using tools/equipment/machinery required for the production process without undue disruption to the production process
assessment is to occur under standard and authorised work practices, safety requirements and environmental constraints.

Method of assessment

A range of assessment methods should be used to assess practical skills and knowledge. The following examples are appropriate for this unit:

assessment methods must confirm consistency and accuracy of performance (over time and in a range of organisation relevant contexts) together with application of underpinning knowledge
assessment methods must be by direct observation of tasks and include questioning on underpinning knowledge to ensure its correct interpretation and application
assessment may be applied under project related conditions (real or simulated) and require evidence of process
assessment must confirm a reasonable inference that competency is able not only to be satisfied under the particular circumstance, but is able to be transferred to other circumstances.
