Application

This unit describes the skills and knowledge required to analyse workplace requirements to introduce or upgrade specialised patternmaking technologies, assess and implement appropriate technologies into the workplace, and manage the change process associated with the implementation.

This unit applies to individuals responsible for the introduction of new technologies in the workplace.

No licensing or certification requirements exist at the time of publication. Relevant legislation, industry standards and codes of practice within Australia must be applied.

Elements and Performance Criteria

Elements 

Performance Criteria 

Elements describe the essential outcomes.

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

1. Plan for the introduction of patternmaking technologies

1.1 Identify patternmaking technologies to prepare for future requirements based on the nature and scope of business operations

1.2 Assess features of technologies and determine application to business operations

1.3 Identify required changes to current patternmaking principles, practices and staff skills

1.4 Confirm suppliers of patternmaking technologies and identify the initial and ongoing training and support provided

1.5 Complete a cost–benefit analysis that identifies risk and provides evidence to support implementation

1.6 Develop a patternmaking technology implementation plan that includes clear objectives, responsibilities, time frames, budget and evaluation methods

2. Implement patternmaking technologies

2.1 Develop comprehensive specifications and workplace practices for workplace patternmaking activities using the new technology in accordance with the implementation plan

2.2 Delegate responsibilities and provide learning and development opportunities according to implementation plan

2.3 Make support available to the workplace affected by implementation of the patternmaking technology

2.4 Address work health and safety issues in accordance with the plan

3. Monitor and evaluate implementation

3.1 Monitor introduction of technologies in accordance with implementation plan

3.2 Identify and rectify problems, faults and quality issues, and make required changes and adjustments to procedures

3.3 Maintain records and prepare reports in accordance with workplace practices

Foundation Skills

This section describes those language, literacy, numeracy and employment skills that are essential to performance but not explicit in the performance criteria.

  • Reading skills to interpret diverse and potentially complex information about technology capabilities
  • Writing skills to develop and structure a cohesive implementation plan.

Other foundation skills essential to performance are explicit in the performance criteria of this unit.

Performance Evidence

There must be evidence the candidate has completed the tasks outlined in the elements and performance criteria of this unit, and demonstrated the ability to:

  • research and assess at least three of the following different patternmaking technologies:
  • computer-aided design (CAD) systems
  • body scanners
  • specification and technical drawing software
  • grading and size table development software
  • 3D/virtual patternmaking
  • develop and monitor a plan to introduce at least one patternmaking technology in the workplace
  • develop specifications and workplace practices to address each of the following using the new technology:
  • block development
  • patternmaking
  • pattern grading.

Knowledge Evidence

There must be evidence the candidate has knowledge of:

  • current and emerging Australian and international patternmaking technologies, including their key features and considerations for their introduction to a workplace
  • all aspects of patternmaking, including block development, pattern creation and grading
  • key steps in the planning process and requirements and inclusions of an operational implementation plan
  • change management considerations for introduction of new technologies
  • monitoring and evaluation processes
  • relevant work health and safety (WHS) legislation and codes of practice.

Assessment Conditions

Skills must have been demonstrated in the workplace or in a simulated environment that reflects workplace conditions and contingencies. The following conditions must be met for this unit:

  • use of suitable facilities, equipment and resources, including:
  • patternmaking technologies.

Assessors must satisfy the NVR/AQTF mandatory competency requirements for assessors.
