Strategic TPM Review
Put your TPM under the strategic microscope
Identify strengths, risks, and next steps, and align it with what really moves the business needle: profitability, customer, and control.
Clearly inform senior management and the board about the current state of the TPM system, its impact on financial and operational results, and prevent decisions that compromise its integrity or contribution to the business.
10 Aspects to Review in a Strategic TPM Review
1. Status of strategic TPM KPIs and KAIs
Indicators affecting productivity, quality, delivery, and profitability.
2. Real participation of senior management and alignment with business objectives
TPM without strategic leadership loses impact.
3. Maturity of each of the 8 TPM pillars and their business contribution
Which ones generate value? Which ones are lagging?
4. Status of Focused Improvement projects (Kobetsu Kaizen)
Are they aligned with business priorities and financial return?
5. Current level of chronic losses by area
Direct impact on operating costs and gross margin.
6. Efficiency in use of technical and human resources (cost per unit produced)
Are there duplications, overengineering, or invisible inefficiencies?
7. Level of standardization and transfer of best practices between plants or lines
Scalability and medium-term cost reduction.
8. Commercial impact of TPM: perceived quality, delivery compliance, customer reputation
TPM not only saves: it also retains customers.
9. TPM ROI or Savings
Do benefits exceed investment? Where to leverage it?
10. Current risks threatening TPM system sustainability
Includes key personnel turnover, strategic or indicator misalignment.
