Build routine maintenance into production schedules
Most businesses see maintenance as a costly, separate activity that slows down production. However, this can lead to safety issues. We helps businesses integrate routine maintenance into their schedules so they can avoid safety issues and save time and money when breakdowns happen. We empower operators to take active roles in maintaining equipment both individually and as part of a team.
Set maintenance metrics & KPIs to track process
Overall equipment effectiveness will improve through the development and implementation of autonomous, preventive maintenance, and predictive maintenance schedules and activities.
Improve management of equipment and log history
We help teams to improve their management of equipment and log history. This streamlines the flow of information and accelerates maintenance activities and overall production time. TPM assists in developing the capabilities of your people, your processes, and your overall facilities. Each program is designed with your unique production setting, company goals, and challenges in mind.
Builds strong training, support, and mentoring protocols
We trains your company executives to provide state-of-the-art training, mentoring, and support to management and staff. We help you build a strong culture of training and provide mentoring protocols to drive progress and eliminate component-driven breakdowns. Our consultants also create an inspection schedule and checklists that teams and managers can complete on their own.
Step One – Identify Pilot Area
In this step the target equipment for the pilot TPM program is selected. There are three logical ways to approach this selection :
- Easiest to Improve
- Constraint/Bottleneck
- Most Problematic
Step Two – Restore Equipment to Prime Operating Condition
In this step, the equipment will be cleaned up and otherwise prepped for improved operation. Two key TPM concepts will be introduced :
- 5s
- Autonomous Maintenance
Step Three – Start Measuring OEE
In this step, a system is put into place to track OEE for the target equipment.
Step Four – Address Major Losses
In this step, the most significant sources of lost productive time are addressed. The TPM concept of Focused Improvement (also known as Kaizen) is introduced.
Step Five – Introduce Proactive Maintenance Techniques
IIn this step, proactive maintenance techniques are integrated into the maintenance
program (thus introducing the TPM concept of Planned Maintenance).
Increase Efficiency by training operators to perform maintenance tasks
Schedules maintenance tasks based on predicted and measured failure rates
Design error detection and prevention into production processes
Provides team-based approach to drive elimination of losses in any process
