Improve equipment efficiency and build a sustainable maintenance culture through TPM and lean practices
TPM is a maintenance management approach that maximizes equipment effectiveness by integrating production and maintenance teams around shared performance goals. It combines autonomous maintenance, planned maintenance, focused improvement and daily management to eliminate the major losses – breakdowns, setup losses, minor stops, speed losses, defects and start-up losses. This training applies the TPM model to build practical, sustainable capability across your organization.
Autonomous maintenance is a core TPM pillar that transfers basic equipment care – cleaning, inspection, lubrication and minor adjustments – from maintenance teams to production operators. Training operators to detect early signs of deterioration reduces breakdown frequency, frees maintenance technicians for higher-value work and builds a stronger sense of ownership over equipment condition. This training provides the methodology and practical tools to implement it in your operations.
This training is designed for any team or group of professionals from the same organization who play a role in, or whose work relates to, its subject. The content is tailored to the group’s context and experience level, so the whole team builds a shared capability it can apply immediately.
Yes. The training is delivered in-company and tailored to your organization’s processes, practices, and typical challenges. The program is aligned with your organization’s reality, priorities, and team structures, enabling teams to apply the concepts and methodologies directly to their work environment.
Companies invest in lean maintenance management and TPM because low OEE is one of the most costly operational losses in many industries. Reliable equipment is essential for companies that aim to achieve operational excellence. Beyond reducing breakdowns, TPM creates shared responsibility between production and maintenance teams for equipment performance. This improves availability, reduces maintenance costs and creates the operational stability needed to sustain lean operations.
No formal prerequisites are required. The training is adapted to the group’s knowledge and experience, from teams with limited background in the topic to more experienced professionals looking to strengthen their capabilities. Familiarity with the processes involved is beneficial but not essential, as the program progresses from foundational concepts to more advanced applications.
Yes. The in-company format is designed to train teams, not individuals. Typically, each group includes up to 12 participants to maximize interaction, practical application, and coaching effectiveness. However, programs can scale across multiple groups, departments, or sites using parallel cohorts or scaling methods adapted to large organizations.
