What an assessment for PMASUP441 must cover
47 assessable components: 3 elements (20 performance criteria), 7 performance evidence and 20 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 Contribute to decommissioning planning
- 1.1Apply process understanding to the planning process
- 1.2Identify the role and purpose of the plant and equipment
- 1.3Ensure the work is coordinated effectively with others involved on the work site
- 1.4Identify process conditions and apply to hazard studies
- 1.5Undertake investigations following on from hazard studies
- 1.6Obtain materials necessary to complete the work and check against job requirements
- 1.7Obtain tools and equipment necessary to carry out the work and check for correct operation and safety
- 1.8Prepare plans to ensure that procedures are performed in the correct sequence
- 1.9Obtain approvals where necessary from appropriate authorities to ensure decommissioning process proceeds in accordance with the plan
- 1.10Complete all appropriate documentation
2 Isolate and decontaminate equipment/unit according to procedures
- 2.1Interpret and apply decommissioning plan
- 2.2Identify and use appropriate safety equipment and materials
- 2.3Isolate and decontaminate equipment components
- 2.4Dispose of contaminated materials or components
- 2.5Complete required documentation
3 Inspect, test and notify completion of work
- 3.1Select tools and equipment appropriate to the testing/inspection requirements and utilise in accordance with manufacturer specifications and legislative requirements
- 3.2Test/inspect in accordance with requirements
- 3.3Ensure compliance with work health and safety (WHS) legislative requirements for risk assessment prior to disposal
- 3.4Ensure any required additional work is undertaken/initiated
- 3.5Notify work completion
Performance evidence
- Evidence required to demonstrate competence in this unit must be relevant to and satisfy the requirements of the elements and performance criteria, and include the ability to:
- plan, coordinate and monitor decommissioning activities
- arrange resources as required
- document the decommissioning and recommendations for safe storage/maintenance/disposal
- communicate effectively with stakeholders, including manufacturers, engineering personnel, designers, contractors and maintenance and other company personnel
- participate in hazard and operability studies (HAZOP), hazard analysis studies (HAZAN) or similar techniques
- identify hazards and risks and apply risk control procedures complete written/electronic documentation.
Knowledge evidence
- Evidence must be provided that demonstrates knowledge of:
- all items on a schematic of the system and functions of each
- principles of operation of items of equipment in the system
- interactions between plant items/processes
- systems’ operating parameters
- system integrity limits
- procedures for typical options/processes for removal of plant and equipment from service, including:
- ‘mothballing’
- storage
- disassembly
- demolition
- decontamination of equipment
- disposal of equipment and waste
- safe disposal methods of materials and equipment
- decontamination processes
- science (e.g. physics, chemistry and biochemistry) relevant to process and materials processed or produced
- process parameters and limits (e.g. temperature, pressure, flow and pH)
- correct methods of starting, stopping, operating and controlling plant
- routine and non-routine problems that may arise, the range of possible causes and processes to develop solutions
- hierarchy of control.

Questions about assessing PMASUP441
What does an assessment tool for PMASUP441 need to cover?
To satisfy the Principles of Assessment and Rules of Evidence, an assessment for PMASUP441 needs to address all 47 unit components: 3 elements with 20 performance criteria, 7 performance evidence requirements, 20 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 PMASUP441?
Auditori pulls the current release of PMASUP441 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 PMASUP441 — with no card and no subscription required. After that it's pay-as-you-go per unit.
Can I check my existing PMASUP441 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 PMASUP441, showing exactly what's covered and what's missing. Mapping costs a quarter of a credit.
