What an assessment for MSS405035 must cover

42 assessable components: 4 elements (24 performance criteria), 1 performance evidence and 13 knowledge evidence requirements, plus 4 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 Determine process for redesign

  • 1.1Obtain or develop a process map of existing process
  • 1.2Identify main products or classes of products produced by existing process
  • 1.3Determine product families (or clusters) based on product profiles, sales forecasts and patterns and compatible process steps
  • 1.4Determine process boundaries to accommodate one or more proposed families

2 Engineer the process

  • 2.1Make a preliminary selection of equipment, technology and process for proposed families
  • 2.2Estimate required resource times for each family
  • 2.3Calculate total resourcing required for each family
  • 2.4Estimate appropriate lot size
  • 2.5Evaluate costs, benefits and alignment to organisation’s competitive systems and practices approach to determine viability of proposed families and preliminary process layout

3 Design the infrastructure

  • 3.1Consult with stakeholders to determine details of layout needs
  • 3.2Identify physical infrastructure required by system
  • 3.3Identify information and control infrastructure required
  • 3.4Identify work organisation required
  • 3.5Identify work health and safety (WHS) and other regulatory requirements
  • 3.6Identify workforce development and training requirements
  • 3.7Check the availability of required infrastructure and compatibility with requirements

4 Lay out the process

  • 4.1Draft proposed process flow map
  • 4.2Draft proposed configuration diagram
  • 4.3Draft proposed space plan or layout
  • 4.4Check availability of services and structural suitability
  • 4.5Validate proposed layout with stakeholders
  • 4.6Finalise process layout
  • 4.7Develop implementation plan in liaison with stakeholders
  • 4.8Implement and review layout

Performance evidence

  • redesign at least one process using a process layout within competitive systems and practices.

Knowledge evidence

  • principles of process layout design
  • equipment capabilities and reliability
  • workforce capabilities and reliability
  • business and customer requirements from layout
  • work health and safety (WHS) and other regulatory requirements
  • determining product profile and processing requirements including:
  • components/materials needed
  • equipment/technology/processes required
  • volume of activity to manufacture forecast amount
  • set-up time
  • equipment time
  • person time
  • process time.

Foundation skills

  • Reading skills: to interpret workplace documentation
  • Writing skills: to document process flows and recommendations
  • Oral communication skills: to facilitate engagement and consult with a range of stakeholders
  • Numeracy skills: to calculate benefit/cost ratio, resource requirements, process capability.

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 MSS405035?

Auditori pulls the current release of MSS405035 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 MSS405035 — with no card and no subscription required. After that it's pay-as-you-go per unit.

Can I check my existing MSS405035 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 MSS405035, showing exactly what's covered and what's missing. Mapping costs a quarter of a credit.
