TPM: Focused Improvement (Kobetsu Kaizen) (PowerPoint PPTX)

Focused Improvement is one of the key pillars of TPM. Also known as Kobetsu Kaizen in Japanese, this presentation provides shopfloor TPM teams, including production workers, maintenance technicians, engineers, and managers a strong framework for further improving equipment performance as well as eliminating the 16 big losses.

As distinguished from Autonomous Maintenance, in which the main goal is to restore basic conditions to prevent accelerated deterioration, Focused Improvement looks at weaknesses that everyone previously thought were unavoidable.

Developed by our JIPM-certified TPM Instructor, this training presentation teaches you the knowledge and skills for planning, organizing and implementing Focused Improvement activities in the workplace. It includes the step by step process and the common analytical tools and techniques for Focused Improvement.
