Maintenance has a far greater impact on corporate profitability than most managers are willing to consider, much less admit. And, as the competitive environment in the world continues to increase the pace, no company can ignore the advantages of Total Productive Maintenance. The author explains how TPM is becoming an essential element of world-class manufacturing by providing optimum maintenance policies and practices, and shows how TPM can be implemented by modifying many of the standard techniques and programs currently used in the United States.
