Releasing New Value from Operations
This fourth support programme develops the capability to sustain operational effectiveness whilst introducing improved products and services to set the customer agenda and deliver growth.
That can achieve step out gains where there is close collaboration between commercial, operations and technology functions.
This close collaboration supports horizontal learning, primes the innovation pump and speeds up the conversion of value proposition ideas into higher added value products and services.
As part of the delivery of new product and service offerings the improvement process releases new value from operations such as:
-
- Increased Precision, higher material yield and lower levels of quality defects,
- Improved flow of value and reduced customer lead times,
- High productivity, flexibility and responsiveness to shifts in demand.
This part of the improvement journey involves Leadership transitions towards
-
- Zero targets
- No touch production
- Flawless operation from project day one.
TPM Centre of Excellence Part 4
This support plan extends the scope of TPM Centre of Excellence capabilities to cover New Product Introduction which often involves the delivery of capital investment projects. That includes the application of Early Equipment Management (EEM) tools to:
- Surface latent project problems early in the project timeline so that they can be dealt with when they are easier to resolve.
- Highlight opportunities to enhance project value and achieve higher levels of return on investment.
- Coordinate the glide path to flawless operation from day one and beyond.

Take Control
The Step Out support plans below provide cross functional teams with working sessions and coaching to guide the team to:
- Develop a common understanding of the issues to be addressed.
- Utilise the full knowledge and experience of the team to agree next steps.
- Develop a deeper understanding of causal factors and collate lessons learned.
- Test and refine potential solutions.
- Implement and standardise new ways of working.
- Lock in the gains.
Sample Support Programme
The format and content of working sessions are customised to meet specific step out goals and industry requirements. Below is an example of a sample support programme with links to stand alone courses to provide further details.
A. Diagnostic Session:
Delivering gains from advanced technology
Format: half day on line
This half day on line session is designed to raise awareness of the evolving best practice road map and identify where advanced technology can deliver step out gains. That includes
- The building blocks of success.
- How to avoid the common implementation pitfalls that result in pilot purgatory.
- How to deliver gains from this disruptive technology.
B. Mobilisation Training Workshops:
Manufacturing Project Management,
Format: 3 day in house training
Successful delivery of Manufacturing Projects depends as much on engaging stakeholders with new thinking and knowledge capture as it does on classic project management tools.
This course covers how to do that to produce winning specifications and the realistic and achievable plans to deliver them.
Learn how to avoid common manufacturing project pitfalls, deliver better value and achieve higher return on investment. Be able to develop a robust project management skill set.
C. Implementation Support:
Format: Coaching Plans for Key Stakeholder Roles
EEM extends the traditional project focus of delivering a new asset or engineering platform to that of delivering Operational Excellence. The difference is the humanisation of projects to incorporate not just what will be done but how it is done. This is characterised by increased collaboration between commercial, operations and technical personnel at all project steps.
