CPPSIS6035 Conduct complex engineering set-out surveys

Modification History

Release 1.

Replaces superseded equivalent CPPSIS6035A Conduct complex engineering set out surveys.

This version first released with CPP Property Services Training Package Version 3.

Application

This unit of competency specifies the outcomes required to conduct a complex engineering set-out survey based on specifications and client requirements. The unit covers analysing specifications and organisational priorities to identify and negotiate projects and organise resources. The unit also covers implementing project management mechanisms relating to scheduling, measuring, recording, monitoring and reporting, and reviewing project progress and outcomes against organisational goals. It covers planning for risks and contingencies and staff supervision, and involves setting up and using specialised surveying equipment to measure, record and reduce surveying data using an established control network and spatial coordinate and reference systems. The unit requires the ability to validate the accuracy of data, and identify and resolve problems.

The unit supports those who work in a technical management role in a surveying team.

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

Elements and Performance Criteria

Elements describe the essential outcomes.	Performance criteria describe the performance needed to demonstrate achievement of the element. Where bold italicised text is used, further information is detailed in the range of conditions.
1.	Prepare for complex engineering set-out survey.	1.1.	Organisational priorities are determined to identify project objectives and specifications.
1.2.	Project specifications are presented to appropriate persons.
1.3.	Characteristics of the operating environment and any special equipment or resource requirements are identified according to organisational requirements.
1.4.	Surveying equipment is selected and checked to ensure correct operation and functionality according to manufacturer specifications.
2.	Plan complex engineering set-out survey.	2.1.	Design is interpreted to identify surveying data components required for set-out.
2.2.	Plan is developed detailing objectives, constraints, work activities, technologies and techniques to be used for set-out according to project specifications and client requirements.
2.3.	Project management mechanisms are implemented to schedule, measure, record and report progress of activities in relation to agreed schedule and plans.
2.4.	Agreed communication processes between client and other appropriate persons are implemented and maintained.
2.5.	Risk management and contingency strategies are devised and followed to ensure project complies with legal and statutory standards and organisational requirements.
2.6.	Work responsibilities are allocated and supervisory processes and problem-solving techniques implemented to ensure work is completed within time available.
3.	Manage complex engineering set-out survey.	3.1.	Identified project components are accurately set out according to project specifications.
3.2.	Set-out measurements and calculations are conducted, validated and recorded using control network according to project specifications.
3.3.	Project progress is reviewed and agreed changes are implemented to ensure consistency with project scope, objectives and constraints.
3.4.	Problems are identified and resolved, and contingencies managed according to organisational requirements.
4.	Finalise complex engineering set-out survey.	4.1.	Project is finalised and checked for compliance with project and organisational requirements.
4.2.	Appropriate persons are notified of project results according to organisational requirements.
4.3.	Documentation is completed and spatial data archived according to project and organisational requirements.
5.	Review project.	5.1.	Project achievements are reviewed against organisational strategic goals.
5.2.	Recommendations are made on possible links between project achievements and future organisational goals.
