Produce and amend technical engineering reports and supporting documentation in the Tram and Tramway environment
Overview
This standard identifies the competencies you need to produce and amend technical engineering reports and supporting documentation in the Tram and Tramway environment. You will be able to produce technical reports and supporting information before, during and after engineering activities in the correct format, language required and within the agreed timescales. You will also be able to amend reports and supporting documentation when required to ensure information is accurate and up to date. This standard is also is about understanding the importance of the information provided and ways in which the information may be used, such as through accident investigations. You will know and understand how to gather the appropriate information and the level of detail required to ensure the quality and accuracy of the work you carry out.
This standard is for those who work in the Tram and Tramway engineering and construction environment at supervisor/technician level.
