Engineers

familiarity with all aspects of the job. They must be technically competent

and perceived as "role models"

for proper job performance. They must be highly skilled and knowledge-

able regarding the tasks required to perform the job, and aware of

current developments such as new procedures, new equipment, as well as

facility and industry "lessons learned." Many years of employment does

not necessarily qualify a person as a competent TTJA member.

qualifications

As applicable, engineers should be selected based on their knowledge of

how the facility systems are designed and should be operated. They

must also be familiar with the tasks involved in the job position being

analyzed and have a good working relationship with the job incumbents.

Other SMEs

If the TTJA seminar is being conducted for a job that is performed in

more than one facility at a site, then you might want to consider broader-

based "job representativeness" as an additional selection criterion. For

example, the Health Physics Technician job position is common in the

DOE community. If TTJA is being conducted at the Oak Ridge National

Laboratory for the Health Physics Technician job, then the team might

consist of representatives from Y-12, X-10, K-25, etc. (assuming one

master task list for this job position will be used throughout ORNL).

Additionally, if two or more DOE sites choose to save money by sharing

a task list for a common job position, the TTJA team might also have

representatives from Paducah and Portsmouth.
