This unit involves the skills and knowledge required to develop integrated logistics support processes and procedures in accordance with relevant organisational policy and procedures.

It includes anticipating and confirming the need for development, the development processes, gathering and analysing information, determining direction, and drafting, releasing and promoting the processes. It also includes the initial development of procedures integral to the processes.

This unit was developed for integrated logistics support specialists working within materiel logistics but is applicable to individuals in broader logistics roles.

Typically these individuals work independently or as part of a team under direct and/or indirect supervision, use discretion and judgement, and take responsibility for the quality of their outputs.

No licensing, legislative or certification requirements apply to this unit at the time of publication.

Elements describe the essential outcomes.

Performance criteria describe the performance needed to demonstrate achievement of the element.

This unit replaces and is equivalent to TLIX5004A Develop integrated logistics support processes and procedures.

Evidence required to demonstrate competence in this unit must be relevant to and satisfy all of the requirements of the elements and performance criteria on at least one occasion and include:

• adhering to relevant work health and safety (WHS)/occupational health and safety (OHS) requirements
• applying integrated logistics support and project management knowledge when developing processes and procedures
• consulting and negotiating with internal and external stakeholders and resolving potential areas of conflict or concern to ensure overall objectives are achieved
• developing processes and procedures that can be readily understood by users
• displaying resilience by continuing to move forward despite criticism or setbacks
• identifying relationships between organisational goals and recognising how own work contributes to achieving these goals
• identifying requirements for processes and procedures, and adjusting them as necessary to ensure effective and efficient performance of processes
• initiating and efficiently monitoring processes
• initiating remedial action required
• undertaking performance measurement to enable objectives to be measured against defined parameters
• undertaking research and analysis to determine where internal and external factors impact on integrated logistics support processes and procedures, and adjusting accordingly
• using appropriate information technology and software
• using organisational strategic objectives to identify long-term factors and external considerations for developing integrated logistics support processes and procedures.

Evidence required to demonstrate competence in this unit must be relevant to and satisfy all of the requirements of the elements, performance criteria and include knowledge of:

• codification and cataloguing processes
• integrated logistics support
• international agreements
• interoperability
• logistics support analysis principles and processes
• management processes
• materiel sustainment
• organisational policy and procedures
• organisational role relevant to integrated logistics support
• performance measurement
• product knowledge related to systems and/or equipment in service in the organisation
• safety, legislative and statutory requirements relevant to integrated logistics support including environmental and sustainability issues
• supply chain concepts.

As a minimum, assessors must satisfy applicable regulatory requirements, which include requirements in the Standards for Registered Training Organisations current at the time of assessment.

As a minimum, assessment must satisfy applicable regulatory requirements, which include requirements in the Standards for Registered Training Organisations current at the time of assessment.

Assessment must occur in workplace operational situations where it is appropriate to do so; where this is not appropriate, assessment must occur in simulated workplace operational situations that replicate workplace conditions.

Assessment processes and techniques must be appropriate to the language, literacy and numeracy requirements of the work being performed and the needs of the candidate.

Resources for assessment include:

• a range of relevant exercises, case studies and/or simulations
• relevant and appropriate materials, tools, equipment and personal protective equipment currently used in industry
• applicable documentation including workplace procedures, regulations, codes of practice and operation manuals
• computer and relevant software
• legislation, guidelines, procedures and protocols relating to integrated logistic support
• integrated logistics support plans.
