Elements and Performance Criteria Pre-Content
Elements describe the essential outcomes of a unit of competency. |
Performance criteria describe the performance needed to demonstrate achievement of the element. Where bold italicised text is used, further information is detailed in the required skills and knowledge section and the range statement. Assessment of performance is to be consistent with the evidence guide. |
Elements and Performance Criteria
1. Maintain logistic support analysis plans |
1.1. Logistic support analysis plans are reviewed in line with trends in system supportability and affordability 1.2. Revisions are proposed to logistic support analysis plans |
2. Perform life cycle cost analysis |
2.1. Actual and anticipated costs through to life of type are identified 2.2. Cost data is analysed |
3. Establish and maintain baselines for reliability, availability and maintainability |
3.1. Data on in-service reliability, availability and maintainability is gathered 3.2. Data is reviewed against established baselines and action is initiated to deal with deviations from the established baselines |
4. Revise logistic support analysis record data |
4.1. Logistic support analysis parameters are analysed using current data 4.2. Analysis results are entered in the logistic support analysis record |
5. Manage data |
5.1. A technical data management system is developed and managed in accordance with contractual and regulatory requirements 5.2. The relevance of technical data is monitored and amendment action is initiated where necessary 5.3. Logistic support management information systems are applied and supported |

Overview of assessment |
A person who demonstrates competency in this unit must be able to perform management-related ILS activities in support of the maintenance of aircraft, systems and items of aeronautical product. |
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. Assessors should gather a range of evidence that is valid, sufficient, current and authentic. Evidence can be gathered through a variety of ways, including direct observation, supervisor's reports, project work, samples and questioning. Questioning techniques should not require language, literacy and numeracy skills beyond those required in this unit of competency. |
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 an appropriate simulation must be used where the range of conditions reflects realistic workplace situations. The candidate must have access to all relevant ILS management tools, equipment, materials and documentation required and must be permitted to refer to any relevant workplace procedures, product and manufacturing specifications, codes, standards, manuals and reference materials. The assessment environment should not disadvantage the candidate. |
