Total Productive Maintenance (TPM)
摘要
The successful implementation of Total Productive Maintenance (TPM) in a logistics company hinges on the active participation of logistics personnel. This can be a crucial catalyst for improving operational efficiency and maximizing productivity in managing tractor-trailer fleets, warehouses, and logistics processes. By applying TPM principles in this environment, the company can experience significant benefits, such as maintenance and availability of truck fleets, efficient maintenance, or adequate PM programs with autonomous maintenance activities in truck inspection and repair of minor failures, adequate participation in training programs for personnel, inventory management, cost reduction and efficient warehouse management. This chapter describes the concepts, evolution, benefits, barriers, and implementation process of TPM in the industry. It also includes a comprehensive literature review, highlighting the primary documents published, the authors who have been pioneers in this topic, and the scientific journals that publish it. Finally, a compelling case study is presented, offering a tangible glimpse into the advantages of implementing TQM in a company.
