TPM IMPLEMENTATION

TPM IMPLEMENTATION

Total Productive Maintenance (TPM) is a continuous improvement program that focuses on improving the equipment in the production process by investing in maintenance programs, equipment enhancements, and employee training. TPM is a proactive process. It works to prevent problems from occurring, rather than responding to problems.

Implementing TPM is a significant undertaking for any business. It is not a quick fix and can take several years to fully implement. TPM often affects the company’s organizational structure, production system, and employee responsibilities. The end results—increased productivity, improved customer satisfaction, and reduced costs—make TPM implementation a worthwhile goal for any company.

5S IMPLEMENTATION

5S is a simple tool for organizing your workplace in a clean, efficient, and safe manner to enhance your productivity, and visual management and to ensure the introduction of standardized working.

Most of the other definitions of 5S and descriptions that I see here on the internet concentrate heavily on the aesthetics and the efficiency gains that you achieve through implementing 5S and neglect the real aim of 5S; the need to introduce standard operational practices to ensure efficient, repeatable, safe ways of working.
