Nowadays, cost, quality, and time must be seen as main competitive success factors, which have to be
considered simultaneously. TQM, TPM, and other improvement philosophies and techniques offer powerful
concepts and tools for enhancing effectiveness and productivity in manufacturing companies.
In this section a systemic view to maintenance, especially TPM, through establishing a system dynamics
model is taken. This model considers the relationships between training of employees, throughput pressure,
machine breakdowns, machine reliability and process quality. The model uses the causal loop diagram and
flow diagram to depict processes, concepts and interdependencies used in the field of system dynamics. The
model is capable of explaining the dynamics of improvement efforts and employees’ training and thus making
the underlying problem visible for everybody’s examination.
Before constructing the system dynamics model for TPM we will examine the most elementary approach
for maintaining equipments through system dynamics terms and concepts and see why this strategy is not
acceptable in today’s competitive world
