Total Productive Maintenance Training

Build a more reliable, less reactive production system

Breakdowns aren’t always avoidable—but they shouldn’t be your baseline. In this practical, shopfloor-focused course, you’ll learn how to build a smart, lean maintenance system that reduces unplanned downtime, empowers operators, and balances effort with impact. Total Productive Maintenance (TPM) doesn’t have to mean bloated systems or chasing perfection—we’ll show you how to make it work, your way.

The classic 8 pillars of TPM. 
A bit overloaded – in our point of view.

Know when to prevent, and when to react

Not all maintenance should be preventive—and not all reactive maintenance is bad. In this training, you’ll learn to distinguish between different maintenance types (autonomous, reactive and preventive) and when each is the right fit. You’ll develop a balanced strategy that prioritizes critical assets and targets your efforts where they matter most—no more over-maintaining or guessing.

Reactive maintenance vs predictive maintenance
Preventive/predictive is often better,
but sometimes reactive is the right choice!

Empower your operators: A practical approach to Autonomous Maintenance

Autonomous Maintenance is more than giving operators a checklist, it’s about building real ownership and awareness at the frontline. In this course, we teach a simplified, 4-pillar version of TPM that gets results without overwhelming your team. You’ll learn how to integrate daily inspection, cleaning, and basic care into routine operations, so small issues get spotted before they become big problems.

From detection to prediction and design

Most failures send signals before they stop the line; the challenge is recognizing them in time. You’ll explore common early indicators and predictive AI approaches to observe machines more effectively. While not every issue can be caught in advance, sharpening your team’s awareness can significantly reduce surprises. You’ll also dive into “Design for Maintenance” principles to make both new and existing equipment easier and safer to maintain—so your systems stay reliable by design, not just by repair.
