Unit Descriptor
Unit Descriptor |
This unit involves the skills and knowledge required to develop materiel sustainment processes and the attendant procedures within the organisation. It includes anticipating and confirming the need for development, the development processes; gathering and analysing information; determining direction; and drafting, releasing and promoting the process. It includes the initial development of those procedures that are integral to the processes. Materiel systems are a composite of equipment, skills and techniques capable of performing or supporting an operational role, or both. A complete materiel system includes all equipment, related facilities, materiel, software, services and personnel required for its operation and support, to the degree that it can be considered self-sufficient in its intended operational environment. There are no specific licensing or certification requirements applicable to this unit. |
