One of my clients has just returned from a FORD Lean Deployment training course, one of the subjects covered was TPM, the TPM document that FORD has published is almost identical to what Toyota has been using for years. In fact some of the presenters were ex Toyota personnel. From what I understand it will be a FORD worldwide requirement to introduce Lean Deployment (of which TPM is a part)over the coming years...that's the intent let's see how it progresses... The concepts are sound and easy to understand, in fact their Dock to Dock method can very eye opening if managment want a true indication of their management system.. I'm curious has anyone conducted any DTD studies? IP: Logged |

Nope - But what's the FORD document you're talking about? Briefly, what is 'Lean Deployment'? [This message has been edited by Marc Smith (edited 03-21-99).] IP: Logged |
