This insightful interview from the President of Fuss & O’Neill Manufacturing Solutions – John Kravontka provides first hand insight into the mistakes, challenges and key principles needed to move from a mindset of keeping equipment running, to running at the highest and most efficient level. According to John, there are 5 pieces of the puzzle that everyone needs to know. He notes, “Operators treat equipment like a rental car, rather than as a valued piece of equipment that they actually “own” for which they take responsibility.” Get ready to take notes on the importance of setting standards and making your process easy, effective and trackable against daily operator performance. Also, click here to view this helpful PDF that illustrators the 5 pieces of this puzzle as detailed in this video. John is a masterful teacher of this view of the TPM process, so look forward to more contributions from him and his team at Fuss & O’Neill.

It’s more than just committing textbooks to memory; it’s a thorough examination of individual expertise measured against a universal standard.
Every facility needs at least one CMRP on its team- and most should have more. They have the knowledge and skills to ensure efficiency and productivity on site- from technical skills and streamlined processes to performance management and managerial confidence.
