What an assessment for AURHTE004 must cover

39 assessable components: 5 elements (21 performance criteria), 1 performance evidence and 11 knowledge evidence requirements, plus 6 foundation skills. An audit-defensible tool maps every question and task back to these — that mapping is the coverage matrix Auditori generates alongside the assessment.

Elements & performance criteria

1 Identify and confirm the work requirement

  • 1.1Objective of the analysis and evaluation is determined from workplace instructions
  • 1.2Specifications for heavy commercial vehicle engine or fuel system are sourced and interpreted
  • 1.3System faults, deficiencies or discrepancies are identified and confirmed
  • 1.4Hazards associated with the work are identified and risks are managed according to workplace procedures and safety and environmental requirements

2 Prepare for analysis and evaluation

  • 2.1Evaluation criteria are developed or adopted to meet the objective of the analysis and evaluation
  • 2.2Analytical and evaluative methodology is developed or identified from technical information
  • 2.3Testing equipment is prepared according to manufacturer specifications and workplace procedures
  • 2.4Tools and materials required to support the diagnostic procedure are identified, selected and prepared for use
  • 2.5Engine or fuel system and components are prepared for the diagnostic process

3 Carry out analysis and evaluation

  • 3.1Selected analytical and evaluative methodology is followed according to manufacturer specifications and workplace procedures
  • 3.2Tests are carried out according to manufacturer specifications, workplace procedures, and safety and environmental requirements
  • 3.3Analytical and other diagnostic findings are verified, as required, by using reliable alternative or optional processes
  • 3.4Analytical findings and results are assessed against evaluation criteria
  • 3.5Valid conclusions are drawn from available evidence and documented according to workplace requirements

4 Make recommendations

  • 4.1Options for responding to the objective are determined from further research of technical support information
  • 4.2Rectification method is selected from an analysis of the options, operating conditions, regulatory requirements, Australian Design Rules, and financial implications
  • 4.3Report is prepared specifying analysis and evaluation process, and detailing and justifying rectification method or variation to the rectification method

5 Complete work processes

  • 5.1Final inspection is made to ensure work is to workplace expectations
  • 5.2Work area is cleaned, waste and non-recyclable materials are disposed of, and recyclable material is collected
  • 5.3Tools and equipment are checked and stored according to workplace procedures
  • 5.4Workplace documentation is processed according to workplace procedures

Performance evidence

  • analyse and evaluate a fault in the: - engine system of a heavy commercial vehicle - fuel system of a different heavy commercial vehicle - engine or fuel system of a third heavy commercial vehicle.

Knowledge evidence

  • work health and safety (WHS) and occupational health and safety (OHS) requirements relating to analysing and evaluating faults in heavy commercial vehicle engine and fuel systems, including procedures for working with high fuel pressures
  • environmental requirements, including procedures for containing and handling fluids released from engine and fuel systems
  • principles and processes involved in planning and implementing analysis and evaluation of engine and fuel system faults
  • design and planning of diagnostic procedures of heavy commercial vehicle engine and fuel system faults, including procedures for diagnosing: - hydraulic faults - mechanical faults - electrical faults
  • procedures for analysing and evaluating heavy commercial vehicle engine and fuel system faults, including: - system failure analysis - component failure analysis
  • types, functions, operation and limitations of the following systems: - engine and components - fuel system and components
  • impact of other associated vehicle systems on engine and fuel system operation, including: - engine electrical system and components - intake system and components - exhaust system and components - lubrication system and components - cooling system and components
  • testing procedures for heavy commercial vehicle engine and fuel systems, including: - engine wear analysis - engine performance - exhaust gas analysis
  • types, functions, operation and limitations of diagnostic testing equipment required to analyse and evaluate faults in engine and fuel systems
  • procedures for documenting and reporting the system analysis and evaluation process
  • requirements of Australian Design Rules (ADRs) relating to heavy commercial vehicle engine and fuel systems.

Foundation skills

  • Learning skills to:: apply learning and processes to different situations.
  • Reading skills to:: research, organise and interpret technical information relating to heavy commercial vehicle engine and fuel systems.
  • Writing skills to:: legibly and accurately fill out workplace documentation when reporting failure analysis findings; document and complete reports.
  • Numeracy skills to:: use mathematical ideas and techniques to complete measurements, calculate analytical requirements, calibrate testing equipment and present analytical results.
  • Planning and organising skills to:: plan own work requirements and prioritise actions to achieve required outcomes and ensure tasks are completed within workplace timeframes.
  • Technology skills to:: use specialised heavy commercial vehicle engine and fuel system diagnostic equipment.

Questions about assessing AURHTE004

What does an assessment tool for AURHTE004 need to cover?

To satisfy the Principles of Assessment and Rules of Evidence, an assessment for AURHTE004 needs to address all 39 unit components: 5 elements with 21 performance criteria, 1 performance evidence requirements, 11 knowledge evidence requirements, and the foundation skills. A coverage matrix mapping each question and task to these components is what an auditor looks for.

How does Auditori generate an assessment tool for AURHTE004?

Auditori pulls the current release of AURHTE004 from training.gov.au and generates a complete package: candidate assessment, assessor guide with model answers and observation criteria, and a coverage matrix mapping every component. A suitably qualified person then reviews and approves the draft in a built-in workflow — consistent with ASQA's guidance on AI use in VET — before export as branded PDF and editable Word.

Is the first assessment tool really free?

Yes. Every new account includes one free credit — enough to generate the complete assessment tool for AURHTE004 — with no card and no subscription required. After that it's pay-as-you-go per unit.

Can I check my existing AURHTE004 assessment instead of generating a new one?

Yes — upload your existing assessment or learner guide and Auditori maps it against every element, performance criterion, PE and KE of AURHTE004, showing exactly what's covered and what's missing. Mapping costs a quarter of a credit.
