 TPM Homepage
Established 1964, with the purpose of encouraging development of the manufacturing industry, factories which displayed remarkable achievement in plant maintenance were presented with PM Excellence Awards, the predecessor of TPM Awards.
In 1989 the TPM Awards were refined to encompass the entire company from the shop floor to the executive boardroom, creating a true company wide commitment to production excellence. As a result, factories which have achieved company-wide efficiency by adopting company-wide TPM are presented with the award.
From 2007, “Assessment Agencies”, public agencies authorized by JIPM, will carry out the assessment in accordance with the assessment criteria of JIPM. The Assessment Agencies will evaluate TPM Awards applicants on the basis of First Stage Assessment and Second Stage Assessment while the TPM Awards Committee of JIPM will take charge of the final approval of passing.
