Accelerate TPM Improvement with Targeted Diagnostics

Our research into the improvement roadmaps of high-performing organisations confirms a fundamental truth: sustained success hinges on moving from reactive management to proactive, people-driven improvement. Once practices that eliminate breakdowns are in place, the focus shifts—from firefighting to preventing the root causes of minor defects. This transformation in leadership and engineering behaviour unlocks significant performance gains.

However, our research also reveals why many improvement programmes stall. Without clarity, alignment, and focus, momentum fades.

We’ve developed a set of rapid self-assessment diagnostics to help you stay on course. Grounded in proven best practice, these tools:

• Pinpoint your current position on the improvement journey

• Identify critical barriers and priority opportunities

• Provide a practical, prioritised roadmap to deliver results

Four TPM Health Checks

1. TPM Excellence

   Assess your operational excellence status across Customer Service, Operations, and Technology functions. Learn how to align your teams and accelerate next steps.

2. Operational Performance Management

   Review how performance analysis and data use align with your current stage of improvement. Identify where refinements can unlock further progress.

3. Maintenance Management

   Evaluate the maturity of your maintenance strategy. Identify how to ratchet up reliability and effectiveness through proactive practices.

4. Project Management

   Understand your organisation’s capability to transfer lessons learned from improvement gains into new assets. Understand where to apply Early Equipment Management principles.

Developing Your Improvement Roadmap

The benchmark report serves as the foundation for crafting an improvement roadmap tailored to your organisation’s unique challenges and opportunities, Based on the improvement journeys of over 300 organisations this takes stock of:

• Strengths and Weaknesses: Identify what’s already working well and areas where improvements will have the greatest impact.

• Good Practices: Build on existing processes rather than reinventing the wheel.

• Performance Management: To understand the causal links between Total Manufacturing Costs and performance drivers for People, Processes and Procedures to surface and prioritise opportunities for improvement.

• Barriers to progress: How to overcome the current barriers to improvement.

• Business Drivers, Priorities and Next Steps: Evaluate options for next steps and plan the plan working sessions to raise awareness and agree cross functional next steps.
