Description
This unit describes the skills and knowledge required to oversee the bump in/bump out process for one or more technical aspects of a production. It is very closely linked to the unit CUETEM01B - Co-ordinate production operations with a particular focus on the organisation and transportation of physical production elements. Head technicians or stage management personnel would generally undertake this role.This unit describes the skills and knowledge required to oversee the bump in/bump out process for one or more technical aspects of a production.

Notes
Elements and Performance Criteria
1 Identify and organise physical element requirements
- 1.1 Correctly interpret production documentation to determine the scope and type of physical elements required
- 1.2 Complete accurate inventory checks to ensure required physical elements are available and ready for use
- 1.3 Identify the need for additional equipment or materials and order or organise these in accordance with organisational procedures and relevant budgetary guidelines
2 Make plans for movement of physical elements
- 2.1 Liaise with other production personnel to determine the most effective sequential order for the movement and installation of physical elements
- 2.2 Identify relevant transport requirements
- 2.3 Organise transport or communicate needs to appropriate personnel as required in accordance with organisational procedures
- 2.4 Make realistic estimates of the numbers of people required for the movement of equipment and provide information to relevant colleagues
- 2.5 Clearly and accurately document plans for movement and installation of equipment in accordance with organisational procedures
3 Oversee the movement of physical elements
- 3.1 Provide clear instructions to appropriate personnel regarding the movement of physical elements to ensure safety and avoid damage to equipment
- 3.2 Monitor the bump in/bump out process to ensure that work is carried out in accordance with instructions
- 3.3 Organise appropriate storage and security of physical elements where required, including valuable items and any hazardous materials
Physical elements include any equipment or materials used for a production, including:
technical equipment
sets/props/scenic art
costumes
staging
support equipment, eg furniture, performer amenities

Underpinning skills and knowledge
Assessment must include evidence of the following knowledge and skills:
in depth knowledge of the bump in/bump out process, including an overview of the requirements and issues faced by different technical areas
planning and organisational requirements for the bump in/bump out process, the roles of key personnel and the typical issues and problems encountered
inventory systems and procedures used for equipment and materials in an entertainment context
sources of additional equipment and supplies for one or more technical production areas
occupational health and safety requirements that affect the allocation of work and the movement of physical elements
effective communication techniques in relation to team leading
Linkages to other units
This unit has linkages with a range of other technical and general supervisory units. It is strongly recommended that this unit be assessed with or after the following unit:
CUETEM01B Coordinate production operations
Critical aspects of evidence
Evidence of the following is critical to the judgement of competence in this unit:
ability to organise and co-ordinate the work of a team for bump in/bump out
detailed knowledge of the bump in/bump out process in a given industry context
Method and context of assessment
The assessment context must provide for:
practical demonstration of skills through the co-ordination of a bump in/bump out process for multiple productions
involvement of and interaction with a team for whom the candidate can plan and organise work
Assessment may incorporate a range of methods to assess performance and the application of essential underpinning knowledge, and might include:
evaluation of a bump in/bump out process co-ordinated by the candidate
evaluation of reports prepared by the candidate detailing the methods used to organise a bump in/bump out, challenges faced and how these were resolved
case studies and problem solving exercises to assess ability to plan for different operational situations and contexts
oral or written questioning to assess knowledge of equipment procedures or safety issues
review of portfolios of evidence and third party workplace reports of on-the-job performance by the candidate
Resource requirements
Assessment of this unit requires access to:
a production venue
equipment and materials to be used during the bump in/bump out process
Communicating ideas and information
