Elements and Performance Criteria

The range statement relates to the unit of competency as a whole. It allows for different work environments and situations that may affect performance. Essential operating conditions that may be present with training and assessment (depending on the work situation, needs of the candidate, accessibility of the item, and local industry and regional contexts) may also be included.
Technical data for logistics plans
Technical data may be sourced from design data taken from CM data during the design and production phase and thereafter from maintenance records and data gathered to comply with organisational and/or regulatory requirements, plus the iteration of the CM process whenever modification action is required
Life cycle cost analysis
Life cycle cost analysis includes the systematic identification and analysis of all actual and anticipated costs associated with implementing and sustaining a system or product throughout its service life
Costs through to life of type
Costs through to life of type may arise from:
operation
engineering support
maintenance support
supply support
facilities costs
personnel costs
Data analysis and review
Data analysis and review may be performed using enterprise databases and analysis tools
Analysis results
Analysis results may include:
in-service failure mode effects and criticality analysis
corrective maintenance analysis
reliability centred maintenance analysis
maintenance task analysis
repair level analysis
LORA
LORA refers to an analytical methodology used to assist in the development of maintenance concepts and to establish the maintenance level at which components will be repaired, replaced or discarded on the basis of constraints (economic or other) and readiness requirements
A technical data management system
A technical data management system should provide for:
maintenance of all applicable technical data
retention of original and back-up data in separate locations
storage in a manner that minimises the risk of data loss, theft or destruction
The relevance of technical data
The relevance of technical data may be determined through:
monitoring engineering, maintenance and supply support activities
utilising user feedback
ILS standards and references
ILS standards and references include:
Army Regulation 700-127 Integrated Logistic Support
Defence Standard 00-600 Integrated Logistic Support for MOD Projects
Defence Standard 00-40 Reliability and Maintainability Pt 1
Defence Standard 00-41 Reliability and Maintainability MOD Guide to Practices and Procedures
MIL-STD 1390D Level of Repair Analysis
NAVAIR 00 -25 403 Guidelines for the Naval Aviation Reliability-Centred Maintenance Process

The evidence guide provides advice on assessment and must be read in conjunction with the performance criteria, required skills and knowledge, range statement and the Assessment Guidelines for the Training Package.
Critical aspects for assessment and evidence required to demonstrate competency in this unit
Assessors must be satisfied that the candidate can competently and consistently perform all elements of the unit as specified by the criteria, including required knowledge, and be capable of applying the competency in new and different situations and contexts for the maintenance-related application of ILS.
Context of and specific resources for assessment
This unit may be assessed on the job, off the job or a combination of both on and off the job. Where assessment occurs off the job, that is, the candidate is not in productive work, then a simulated working environment must be used where the range of conditions reflects realistic workplace situations.
The competencies covered by this unit would be demonstrated by an individual working alone or as part of a team.
Where applicable, reasonable adjustment must be made to work environments and training situations to accommodate ethnicity, age, gender, demographics and disability.
Access must be provided to appropriate learning and/or assessment support when required. Where applicable, physical resources should include equipment modified for people with disabilities.
Method of assessment
Assessment must satisfy the endorsed Assessment Guidelines of the MEM05 Metal and Engineering Training Package.
Assessment methods must confirm consistency and accuracy of performance (over time and in a range of workplace 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 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 not only able to be satisfied under the particular circumstance, but is able to be transferred to other circumstances.
Assessment may be in conjunction with assessment of other units of competency where required.
Guidance information for assessment
Assessment processes and techniques must be culturally appropriate and appropriate to the language and literacy capacity of the candidate and the work being performed.
