SCHEDULER D9F1XX
Concept of Class
This class describes the fully-operational coordinating and scheduling work on assignments received through the service desk, scheduling jobs for the various shops, notifying managers and supervisors, assigning charges and codes to work orders, preparing periodic cost reports, and composing weekly project status reports. The work may also involve coordinating scheduled
mechanical and electrical outages, provide emergency, operational, and routine information to maintenance personnel, customers or users, and other agency personnel; and receiving information from them. Work assignments are received verbally or by written or computer orders and are carried out in accordance with the agency physical plant policies and procedures.
Factors
Allocation must be based on meeting all of the three factors as described below.
Decision Making
The decisions regularly made are at the operational level, as described here. Within limits set by the specific process, choices involve deciding what operation is required to carry out the process. This includes determining how the operation will be completed. By nature, data needed to make decisions are numerous and variable so reasoning is needed to develop the practical course of action within the established process. Choices are within a range of specified, acceptable standards, alternatives, and technical practices. For example, positions change scheduled repairs to meet emergency situations.
Complexity
The nature of, and need for, analysis and judgment is patterned, as described here. Positions study available information such as equipment manufacturers manuals and service bulletins, appropriate state and local government codes, trade-specific manuals and practices, and agency guidelines and determine what they mean and how they relate to the specific assignment in order to reach a practical solution by repairing the problem. Guidelines in the form of written manuals exist for most situations. Additionally, verbal instructions are given from supervisory personnel. Judgment is needed in locating and selecting the most appropriate of these guidelines which may change for varying circumstances as the task is repeated. This selection and interpretation of guidelines involves choosing from alternatives where most may be correct but one is better than another depending on the given circumstances of the situation. Positions, for example, develop emergency and routine service desk operating procedures.
Line/Staff Authority
The direct field of influence the work of a position has on the organization is as an individual contributor. The individual contributor may explain work processes and train others. The individual contributor may serve as a resource or guide by advising others on how to use processes within a system or as a member of a collaborative problem-solving team. This level may include positions performing supervisory elements that do not fully meet the criteria for the next level in this factor.
Entrance Requirements
Minimum entry requirements and general competencies for classes in this series are contained in the State of Colorado Department of Personnel website.
For purposes of the Americans with Disabilities Act, the essential functions of specific positions are identified in the position description questionnaires and job analyses.
