THE COVE RULES

Marc:
I have been a member for some time now, learned a lot, posted a few, hopefully help teach a little.

Recently, I have had a very strong suggestion by my fabulous customer to impliment TPM (hate it). They have even determined that our consultant will be JIPM (hate em).

Anyway, I check out the TPM forum here, not a lot of action, so I have been looking elsewhere for my needs (sorry).

My search has only been able to prove one thing, all other forums can not compare to the cove, easy posting, easy reading, dont have to click question, then RE:, RE:, RE, what a bore.

I will try the Cove TPM forum and hopefully it will start to be active.

With sincere appreciation for your service.

In need? Send money!!!!

Just kidding... Nope - the TPM forum has not been a big hit. But I refuse to let it die. What there is there is relevant. I doubt you'll be able to stir up much interest, but you never know. I personally believe TPM is very valuable if done correctly.

How did your customer decide who will be your company's TPM consultant? What is your customer's interest in a specific consultantcy?

so I have been looking elsewhere for my needs (sorry).

The Cove is just one resource. I expect folks to seek knowledge at many places / sites. Your contributions here are appreciated.

As you probably know from looking at the old forum messages, I tried that route. This software leaves a lot to be desired, actually, but I felt it was the best in so far as presentation and ease of use for the user goes. It's a pain to administer, however, and lacks a number of features (including an easy to use digest function) that I would really like. Oh well...

If you want to do something for me, do something for everyone. Keep stopping by and when you can help to answer someone's question, do so. If you want to be a moderator of the TPM forum, let me know. But again, I don't see much 'business' there. I personally wish there was more.

Look at that service, less than 5 minutes.

The Japaneese good old boy network, most likely our customers top guy has a brother-in-law that works at JIPM

As you might imagine. Home and dateless on a Friday night. What else have I got to do?
