Ahmed Ali Posted October 26, 2014 Share Posted October 26, 2014 dear members,i have some doubt in mind about the roles of Plant or Production Engineer as they are listed in Production or Plant Engineer Australia as follows: 1220.0 - ANZSCO - Australian and New Zealand Standard Classification of Occupations, First Edition, Revision 1 1-studying functional statements, organisational charts and project information to determine functions and responsibilities of workers and work units and to identify areas of duplication 2-establishing work measurement programs and analysing work samples to develop standards for labour utilisation 3-analysing workforce utilisation, facility layout, operational data and production schedules and costs to determine optimum worker and equipment efficiencies 4-designing mechanical equipment, machines, components, products for manufacture, and plant and systems for construction 5-developing specifications for manufacture, and determining materials, equipment, piping, material flows, capacities and layout of plant and systems 6-organising and managing project labour and the delivery of materials, plant and equipment 7-establishing standards and policies for installation, modification, quality control, testing, inspection and maintenance according to engineering principles and safety regulations 8-inspecting plant to ensure optimum performance is maintained 9-directing the maintenance of plant buildings and equipment, and coordinating the requirements for new designs, surveys and maintenance schedules these tasks are common for the whole unit group 2335 which include production or plant ,mechanical and industrial engineer, so how are those tasks divided between the 3 jobs...iam asking this because when i looked closely i found that automation and control is a specialisation of 233513 although its not expected for an automation engineer to perform task 1,3,4 ...i never heard about a control engineer who designs mechanical parts.... so my conclusion was as follows tasks 1,2,3 belongs to industrial eng. ...tasks 4,5 belongs to mechanical....tasks 6,7,8,9 belongs to plant eng......am i right?????? plz brothers who ever been thrugh this assessment before under 233513 guide me as iam really confused....it will be very helpful if any control engineer send me his roles which was assessed as relevant exp so i can make sure does it has the industrial and mechanical parts or not.....i really need feedback from experts ....thanks brothers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ozmaniac Posted October 26, 2014 Share Posted October 26, 2014 If you look a bit further into the ANZSCO task descriptions, you'll see that it narrows it down for each individual occupation and says: 233513 PRODUCTION OR PLANT ENGINEER Plans, directs and coordinates the design, construction, modification, continued performance and maintenance of equipment and machines in industrial plants, and the management and planning of manufacturing activities. Registration or licensing may be required.Skill Level: 1 Specialisation: Automation and Control Engineerhttp://www.abs.gov.au/ausstats/abs@.nsf/Previousproducts/A59219FD4F7B6B0CCA2571E20083546E?opendocument Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kemkaltech Posted October 26, 2014 Share Posted October 26, 2014 This occupation is the combined group of Engineers and you are right that last three or four job description related to Production and Plant Engineer. If you are working in production units and working as a control engineer you would get assessment in this category. There are threads at this forum in the past in which people share their experience that they got positive skill assessment as Production Engineer but they were working as Control Engineer. You have to prove in your CDR that your projects or job role increse the production of plant or increase the efficency of plant or a long problem in control networks that was causing production loss and you had solved it by your engineering approach ot you have applied recent developments in control engineering at your plant that results in smooth operation of a plant.

Ahmed Ali Posted October 27, 2014 Author Share Posted October 27, 2014 thanks for your replies ...they gave me a hope....i work in a container terminal at the harbour and i'm responsible for maintenence of quay cranes (sts vranes) that are used to load and unload containers from ships....basically these cranes are controlled though PLC and frequency converters ... so according to your reply ...i can apply under this occupation Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
