Description
This unit covers the skills and knowledge to analyse and implement specialised pattern-making technologies.
Notes
Elements and Performance Criteria
1 Analyse and assess pattern-making technologies
- 1.1 Pattern-making technologies (national and international) are identified and assessed.
- 1.2 Current workplace applications are analysed to assess efficiency and appropriateness of technologies.
- 1.3 Software audits are conducted.
- 1.4 Opportunities for upgrading current technologies are assessed.
- 1.5 Future and unmet requirements for pattern-making technologies are identified.
2 Develop implementation plans
- 2.1 Staff skills for implementation of new technologies are determined.
- 2.2 Risks and obstacles relating to the introduction are identified.
- 2.3 Changes to current pattern-making principles and practices are identified.
- 2.4 Suppliers of pattern-making technologies are confirmed and their provision of initial and ongoing training and support are identified.
- 2.5 Pattern-making technology implementation plan is developed, including objectives, timeframes, training and budget.
3 Implement pattern-making technologies
- 3.1 Pattern-making technologies are implemented and workplace practices adjusted according to implementation plan.
- 3.2 Responsibilities for pattern-making technologies are delegated.
- 3.3 Learning and development opportunities are provided according to implementation plan.
- 3.4 Specifications and workplace practices for block development, pattern making and pattern grading using the new technology are developed.
- 3.5 Support is made available to the workplace affected by implementation of the pattern-making technology.
- 3.6 Implementation of OHS practices is ensured.
4 Monitor and manage pattern-making technologies
- 4.1 Implementation of plan is monitored and supervised to ensure production and quality meet required standards of compliance.
- 4.2 Production problems, faults and quality issues are identified and rectified.
- 4.3 Where required, changes and adjustments are made to procedures.
5 Maintain records
- 5.1 Records are maintained and reports prepared, where necessary.
- 5.2 All processes and technology outcomes are documented.
RANGE STATEMENT
The Range Statement relates to the unit of competency as a whole. It allows for different work environments and situations that may affect performance. Bold italicised wording, if used in the Performance Criteria, is detailed below. Add any essential operating conditions that may be present with training and assessment depending on the work situation, needs if the candidate, accessibility of the item, and local industry and regional contexts.
Legislative/regulatory requirements
All work must comply with relevant Federal and State or Territory legislative or regulatory requirements.
Pattern-making technologies may include:
CAD systems
body scanners
specification and technical drawing software
grading and size table development software
3D avatars and fitment software
Icon technology
Software audits may include:
key audits
systems management audits
New technologies may include:
technology which is new to the workplace
new aspects of currently used technology (ie upgraded technologies)
hardware or software components
OHS practices
OHS practices must include hazard identification and control, risk assessment and implementation of risk reduction measures specific to the tasks described by this unit and may include:
manual handling techniques
standard operating procedures
personal protective equipment
safe materials handling
taking of rest breaks
ergonomic arrangement of workplaces
following marked walkways
safe storage of equipment
housekeeping
reporting accidents and incidents
other OHS practices relevant to the job and enterprise

The Evidence Guide provides advice on assessment and must be read in conjunction with the Performance Criteria, Required Skills and Knowledge, the Range Statement and the Assessment Guidelines for the Training Package.
Critical aspects of evidence
Demonstrates skills and knowledge to:
analyse pattern-making technologies
analyse workplace requirements for new technologies
develop pattern-making technology implementation plan
implement pattern-making technology
communicate effectively with team members
monitor and manage implementation of new pattern-making technologies
apply OHS practices in work operations
maintain accurate records
Consistency in performance
Consistently applies skills and knowledge when:
organising work
completing tasks
identifying improvements
using workplace practices
using OHS practices
recording and reporting accidents and incidents
assessing operational readiness of equipment used and work processes
recognising and adapting to cultural differences in the workplace, including modes of behaviour and interactions
completing work systematically with attention to detail without damage to goods and equipment
Resource implications
Access is required to real or appropriately simulated situations, including work areas, materials and equipment, and to information on workplace practices and OHS practices.
Context for assessment
Assessment may occur on the job or in an appropriately simulated environment.
Interdependent assessment
This unit may be assessed independently or in combination with other relevant units.
