Gemba Academy has just released a new seven module online video training course on Total Productive Maintenance.
In this pre-recorded, live training seminar shot at the Peterbilt Manufacturing Training Center in Denton, TX, Mike Wroblewski, a senior lean consultant from Gemba Consulting and the Kaizen Institute explains why Total Productive Maintenance (TPM) is not optional for lean thinking companies who rely on machines and equipment to satisfy customer demand.
During this course Mikes explains what TPM is, and isn't, while also covering important topics such as the 6 Big Losses and how to measure them using the extremely powerful Overall Equipment Effectiveness (OEE) metric.
Throughout the course Mike, who definitely likes to have fun while teaching, shares many real life and extremely practical examples of TPM in action.
Mike's name might ring a bell - he's also one of our fellow bloggers over at Got Boondoggle.
Gemba Academy now has over 160 training modules, and the TPM course was the first group to also enable watching on mobile devices such as the iPad, iPhone, and Blackberry. Over 1000 organizations worldwide are now using Gemba Academy product, in practically every industry.
Other courses include: The Kaizen Way, 5S Workplace Productivity, Dealing With the Seven Deadly Wastes, Practical Problem Solving, Standard Work, Leader Standard Work, Transforming Your Value Streams, The Seven Quality Control Tools, Quick Changeover: The SMED System, and Lean Lingo Explained.
