TPM is a management method first applied in Japan, then popularized and widely applied in industrial manufacturing industries around the world . The concept and method of TPM were first introduced by the Japan Institute of Plant Maintenance (JIPM) in 1971. Starting from the 1980s, TPM began to be widely popularized outside of Japan. TPM is a combination of PM and part of TQM (Total Quality Management System). To be effective, TPM needs to be widely implemented throughout the organization. Involving all departments and everyone involved. TPM implementation aims to maximize equipment performance, improve productivity with a maintenance system implemented throughout the life cycle of the equipment, and at the same time improve employee awareness and satisfaction with work. With TPM, everyone unites and agrees with each other to improve equipment performance in the most effective way. The idea that it is my responsibility to operate the equipment, and your responsibility to repair the equipment, has been replaced by “You and I are both responsible for our equipment, our plant, our future.”
