TPM is a production system in which operators take primary responsibility for their equipment's basic condition — and maintenance engineers focus on the complex failures that operators cannot handle. This program builds both sides of that equation: operator autonomous maintenance skills (the 7 steps), and the maintenance engineering systems (planned maintenance, predictive tools, and MTBF/MTTR improvement) that support zero-breakdown production.

No. TPM is especially valuable for SMEs where production staff must also manage basic equipment care. The autonomous maintenance pillar is designed for exactly this situation.
OEE measures the outcome of your equipment management — TPM is the system that improves it. Availability (the A in OEE) is directly improved by autonomous and planned maintenance. Many clients pair a 2-day OEE programme with a 2-day TPM programme.
The methodology applies to all manufacturing equipment: CNC, injection moulding, SMT lines, conveyor systems, welding stations, and more. The hands-on exercises use equipment from your own factory.
Yes. TPM builds on your existing PM system — it doesn't replace it. The training covers how to integrate AM and planned maintenance with your current CMMS or PM schedule.
