Next-Generation Total Productive Maintenance (TPM) Masterclass 2026
Why You Can’t Miss This Masterclass?
Industries competitiveness now depends on how effectively organisations manage the reliability, cost, and productivity of their assets. Many TPM initiatives fail not because of lack of intent, but because teams struggle to sustain momentum, measure impact, and align maintenance with business performance.
This masterclass provides a structured path to rebuild TPM from the ground up — integrating proven practices with data, AI, and human engagement to deliver visible, measurable results.
Over four intensive days, delegates will:
- Translate TPM principles into actions that reduce downtime and maintenance cost.
- Master calculations for TEEP and equipment efficiency to quantify improvement.
- Strengthen workforce ownership and cross-functional collaboration.
- Learn how to sustain TPM beyond initial rollout through culture and governance.
Key Objectives
This masterclass is designed to help participants strengthen maintenance efficiency, reliability, and cost control through practical TPM implementation and data-driven improvement.
By the end of the programme, delegates will be able to:
- Apply TPM principles to minimise unplanned downtime and improve equipment availability.
- Measure and improve TEEP and related KPIs for better asset performance tracking.
- Integrate data analytics and AI insights into maintenance planning and reliability improvement.
- Develop cost-reduction strategies by identifying waste, optimising spare parts, and enhancing workforce utilisation.
- Build a sustainable TPM culture that drives ownership, safety, and continuous improvement.

Course Overview :
In today’s manufacturing industry landscape, companies are under constant pressure to increase productivity, reduce downtime, and improve equipment reliability — all while maintaining workforce engagement and safety standards.
The Next-Generation Total Productive Maintenance (TPM) Masterclass 2026 equips plant and maintenance leaders with practical methods to strengthen asset performance through teamwork, ownership, and data-driven maintenance. Built on the foundational principles of TPM, this course extends them into the digital era — integrating Artificial Intelligence (AI) to enhance predictive accuracy, automate insights, and optimise resource utilisation. Together, AI and TPM create a powerful synergy that connects human expertise with intelligent analytics, driving smarter, safer, and more reliable operations.
Delegates will learn how to apply TPM pillars to their own environment, perform key calculations such as TEEP, and translate results into measurable gains in reliability, safety, and cost efficiency. The focus is not only on how to start TPM — but how to sustain it and embed continuous improvement into the culture of the plant.
