Assessment information
Purpose This document represents the main assessment instrument for the unit of
competency SITXINV001 - Receive and store stock
Unit description This unit describes the performance outcomes, skills and knowledge
required to check and take delivery of stock and appropriately store,
rotate and maintain the quality of stock items.
It does not include specialist stock control processes for perishable
foodstuffs which are covered by SITXINV002 Maintain the quality of
perishable items.
The unit is relevant to organisations where stock control is an integral and
essential part of business operations, and where there are control issues to
be considered. The unit is not appropriate for situations where stock
management is very simple, such as controlling stationery supplies in a small
office.
It applies to operational personnel who work with very little independence
and under close supervision. They apply little discretion and judgement and
follow predefined organisational procedures to report any stock-related
discrepancies to a higher level staff member for action.
The unit applies to all tourism, travel, hospitality and event sectors and to
any type of stock.
No occupational licensing, certification or specific legislative requirements
apply to this unit at the time of publication.

1. Instructions: Provides a brief description about the assessment task and
broadly indicates what the Student is required to do.
2. Conditions of assessment: Outlines the conditions in which the
assessment must be undertaken. In some cases, it will give options for
the student about what to base the assessment task on and whether it is
practical demonstration or project.
3. Description of task/decision making rules: Advises the student and the
assessor of the task description and the criteria that the assessment must
meet in order for a satisfactory result to be awarded.
4. Due Date - the date on which assessment falls due.
Completing the

process and various assessment tasks before undertaking the assessments.
This assessment tool is structured in a way that each assessment task clearly
outlines the:
• Instructions for completing the assessment task;
• Conditions in which the assessment must be conducted;
• Evidence that must be presented by the student; and
• Decision-making rules by which the evidence will be judged.

Every assessment task will require satisfactory completion in order for
students to be deemed Competent. The students will need to adhere to
any guidelines on length of answers required where stipulated. Please note,
a paragraph is three or more sentences.
Assessment Each assessment task has a section for the assessor recording the
assessment outcome as either ‘Satisfactory’ (S) or ‘Not Satisfactory’ (NS).
Once the student satisfactorily completes all assessment tasks, the assessor
will complete the assessment summary cover sheet and record either a
