Abstract
Total productive maintenance (TPM) is one of the productivity improvement programs implemented by various manufacturing industries. This research paper highlights the degree to which TPM is being implemented in the selected small and medium-sized Indian manufacturing industries. In this work a pre-set questionnaire is used, which consists of 20 questions related to TPM and its implementation. The questionnaire is given to the respondents such as executives, engineers, managers and supervisors from various manufacturing industries of small to medium size. The questionnaire is sent to 100 manufacturing industries using Google forms, out of which 70 responses are received and they constitute the sample size. The responses are rated on a five-point Likert scale. The responses are analyzed using statistical tools such as bar charts and pie diagrams, thoroughly interpreted to draw the inferences. Analysis shows that only 50 industries out of 70 are making use of TPM for improving their productivity and the remaining industries are yet to kick off the implementation of TPM. The research also identifies the possible reasons for not implementing TPM in the selected manufacturing industries.
