What an assessment for MEM09157 must cover

47 assessable components: 4 elements (18 performance criteria), 10 performance evidence and 19 knowledge evidence requirements. 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 Clarify the design drawing task

1.1Determine the requirements of the design drawing brief received
1.2Check and modify information to meet design criteria
1.3Confirm accuracy of modified information with relevant stakeholders
1.4Confirm software and file formats to be used with relevant stakeholders
1.5Confirm design drawing brief and provide preliminary advice on feasibility

2 Prepare for drawing production

2.1Determine stakeholders to be consulted in design drawing process
2.2Access required reference documents
2.3Assess and determine work health and safety (WHS), regulatory and sustainability issues relevant to design task
2.4Determine range of engineering drawings required

3 Produce mechanical or maintenance engineering-related drawings

3.1Produce orthogonal drawings of mechanical components and assemblies to standards using computer graphical techniques
3.2Produce 3D images of mechanical components and assemblies to standards using computer graphical techniques
3.3Determine and apply dimensioning, symbols and other graphical convention information appropriate to mechanical or maintenance engineering applications
3.4Obtain required technical and professional assistance to clarify design information
3.5Confirm final range of design drawings to be produced with relevant stakeholders

4 Provide and supervise final documentation

4.1Submit final design drawings for sign-off by specified authority
4.2Prepare CAD files for export to detailer
4.3Provide and store documentation and clearances according to job requirements and enterprise drawing management system and procedures
4.4Follow organisational processes to supervise production of detail drafting

Performance evidence

following work instructions, standard operating procedures (SOPs) and safe work practices
producing drawings that are consistent with design information and all relevant Australian and international standards, codes and conventions
selecting and applying design criteria to meet requirements of the design brief and confirming software and file formats to be used for design with stakeholders on at least two occasions
developing orthographic, isometric and other 3D graphical representations
representing mechanical components and assemblies using sketching and computer graphics on at least two occasions
representing mechanical components and features using standard conventions and graphical techniques on at least two occasions
representing mechanical assemblies using standard graphical representations on at least two occasions
consulting with other personnel and stakeholders
providing documentation
Note: Where a volume and/or frequency is not specified, demonstration must be provided at least once.

Questions about assessing MEM09157

What does an assessment tool for MEM09157 need to cover?

To satisfy the Principles of Assessment and Rules of Evidence, an assessment for MEM09157 needs to address all 47 unit components: 4 elements with 18 performance criteria, 10 performance evidence requirements, 19 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 MEM09157?

Auditori pulls the current release of MEM09157 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 MEM09157 — with no card and no subscription required. After that it's pay-as-you-go per unit.

Can I check my existing MEM09157 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 MEM09157, showing exactly what's covered and what's missing. Mapping costs a quarter of a credit.
