Description
This unit describes the skills and knowledge required to use planning and systems control applications to plan, monitor and adjust glazing industry production scheduling, including for glass processing and the manufacturing and installation of windows, doors and decorative glass.This unit applies to experienced workers who interpret and use advanced technical information to develop solutions to potentially complex glass and glazing requirements. They commonly work independently and typically solve complex problems that require theoretical knowledge and experience about the specification, manufacture and installation of a wide range of glass and glazing products. Job roles commonly involve leadership and supervisorial responsibilities.At the time of this unit’s release, the work described in this unit does not require licensing or certification, but state or territory authorities should be consulted to determine the current status. Workers on construction sites are required by law to complete induction training. They must also comply with relevant legislation, Australian Standards, codes and manufacturers’ installation instructions.
Notes
Elements and Performance Criteria
1. Identify production and resource requirements
  • 1.1 Identify production requirements from analyses of sales forecasts, stock holdings and other relevant workplace documentation
  • 1.2 Identify and confirm production priorities by evaluating documentation and consulting with relevant internal and external personnel
  • 1.3 Identify the factors to be taken into account and the interrelationships between them when developing and managing the production schedule
  • 1.4 Determine raw materials, packaging, consumables, equipment and human resources are adequate to meet production requirements
2. Develop production schedules
  • 2.1 Consult with key production personnel to obtain required information about production opportunities and constraints
  • 2.2 Develop the production schedule using a planning application to achieve quantities, budgets, timelines and other production requirements, and to minimise costs and holdings of product and maximise production efficiency
  • 2.3 Document the production schedule in a format suited to relevant personnel and make it available to them
3. Monitor production schedules implementation
  • 3.1 Monitor production output against the schedule
  • 3.2 Identify variations and their causes between the schedule and output, and liaise with relevant personnel according to workplace procedures
  • 3.3 Identify and assess the impact on production of resource shortages and other potential and actual unforeseen events
  • 3.4 Identify and assess the impact of failures to meet delivery deadlines and other requirements and negotiate with relevant production personnel to rectify failures
4. Amend production schedules
  • 4.1 Identify the time and resource implications of unforeseen events, revise resource requirements and adjust the schedule
  • 4.2 Negotiate production schedule amendments with relevant production personnel
  • 4.3 Amend and distribute schedule documentation to relevant personnel according to workplace procedures
5. Review production schedules
  • 5.1 Identify, investigate and report variances in production against the schedule according to workplace procedures
  • 5.2 Seek feedback from production personnel
  • 5.3 Seek feedback from production personnel to identify opportunities to improve the production schedule
  • 5.4 Revise the scheduling process to reflect identified improvement opportunities and communicate changes to relevant personnel
