Replete with annotated photographs and illustrations documenting Agilent''s successful program, this book offers an invaluable roadmap to TPM implementation. Drawing on his experience at Agilent, the author explains the fundamental concepts of TPM, including the six basic principles, the goals, cultural changes that result from TPM, and keys to successful implementation. He describes, in step-by-step detail, the evolution of Agilent’s TPM program, clearly defining and demonstrating each phase. The book focuses on developing a vision and a strategy for successful TPM programs. It includes master checklists, forms, and appendices with examples of maintenance training materials.

Agilent Technologies, formerly Hewlett-Packard''s Test and Measurement Division, operates an integrated circuit fabrication plant in Fort Collins, Colorado. Guided by Masaji Taijiri, the author of 7 Steps to Autonomous Maintenance (see page 34), author Jim Leflar and his team at Agilent developed a complete TPM program for the complex equipment on their shop floor. Drawn from these experiences, Practical TPM is a must read for anyone who wants to begin successful TPM implementation.

Part I explains the fundamental concepts of TPM, including the six basic principles of TPM, the goals of TPM, cultural changes resulting from TPM, and the keys to successful implementation. Part II — the heart of the book — describes, in step-by-step detail, the evolution of Agilent''s TPM program. Each phase is clearly defined and demonstrated; the working tools and systems developed by the Agilent TPM team in the process are discussed at length. To conclude, Part III focuses on developing a vision and a strategy for your own successful TPM program.

Replete with annotated photographs and illustrations documenting Agilent''s successful program, Practical TPM: Successful Equipment Management at Agilent Technologies offers an invaluable roadmap to TPM implementation.
