Importance of Total Productive Sustainment in Manufacturing IndustriesThe process of globalization that is becoming popular in today's manufacturing markets is one of the major forces influencing the activities of an organization. In order to stay in the race, it is necessary for organizations to continually improve the effectiveness and efficiency of their production methods. The efficiency and effectiveness of equipment plays a major role in the modern manufacturing industry in determining the performance of organizational production improvement as well as the level of success achieved in the organization. Total productive maintenance (TPM) is a methodology that aims to increase the availability of existing equipment, thereby reducing the need for additional capital investments. TPM is best known as total productive maintenance, where the word total represents total employee involvement, total number of manufacturing equipment, and entire processes in the manufacturing system. Productive means generating and getting the most out of any set of inputs, and maintenance means the careful management and care of plant assets and equipment. Today, TPM can also stand for Total Production Management and Total Perfect Management. Therefore, total productive maintenance is a holistic approach to equipment maintenance that aims to achieve perfect production. According to Baluch, Abdullah, and Mohtar (2012), TPM originated from Nippondenso, a subsidiary of Toyota Motors Company in the late 1960s. By the early 1970s, it had become popular within Toyota Motors and subsequently formed the backbone of the famous Toyota production system. Furthermore, researchers also mention that the Toyota Production System is middle of paper terminology......and it may take a year to implement. It can be used not only in the manufacturing industry but also in the service sector, construction, building maintenance and in various other applications. However, when implementing total productive maintenance, some difficulties arise in certain categories such as implementation and technical issues, management and cultural issues. In short, cultural change is the most important factor in TPM implementation, which means that manufacturing organizations need real support from top management to overcome any type of resistance among employees , middle managers and workers. To overcome this type of problem while implementing total productive maintenance, the engagement of employees and managers in any change process taking place in the company must be accompanied by a full understanding of the mission and purpose. the objective of this change..
