Total Productive Maintenance Awareness

Why Total Productive Maintenance

Indian industries are poised for excellence and have begun building sustainable manufacturing excellence components into their manufacturing units. The Total Productive system (TPM) was initiated in Japan by JIPM (Japan Institute of Plant Maintenance) in 1971 based on the preventive maintenance measures developed in USA in the 50s, which then developed to productive maintenance and finally to Total Productive Maintenance. By adopting to the system, organization can make their equipments as well as the whole manufacturing unit into an effective one.

Ineffective utilisation of machines, as a whole creates financial burden to the organization towards investment in those equipments and tools. As a consequence the skills of the operators and supervisors also go waste. The time and energy of the managers will be spent on monitoring the personnel and taking care of the maintenance of equipments makes the organization unproductive. In order to achieve the effectiveness and increasing the efficiency of operatives, all the people concerned should be made aware of the TPM system and philosophy behind it.

As a result TPM will build up a continuous improvement culture and system to achieve zero accident, zero defect, zero breakdown and zero waste by involving all functions and all workforce using a series of TPM tools and developing workforce skills. The unique advantage of TPM system for any manufacturing industry is that, it has combination of both American and Japanese system enabling easy adoption.

TPM certification procedure adopted by the Japan Institute of Plant Maintenance has stringent norms, desirably the manufacturing units should initiate their TPM system with basic awareness at all levels of the organization.
