Reserch on TPM Program Practice- a case study of SYSCO

At the time of the globalization trend, the rising of Mainland China, and the protection on customs duty being loose after Taiwan joined WTO, the enterprises in Taiwan are faced with the stricter and stricter economic surroundings.
Under so strict economic surroundings, to keep surviving, the enterprises must do well at the same time on the three areas including internal improvement, innovation and expansion.
This study is taking Sheng Yu Steel Co., Ltd. (SYSCO) for example, reserch how SYSCO to introduce TPM programs on the basis of TQM, analyzing how to continue making internal improvement, promote overall equipment efficiency, and strengthen the company¡¦s competition advantage, by the way of mainly improving the production equipment.
TQM activities had been successfully developed in SYSCO for years. Before TPM programs were initiated into SYSCO in the second half year of 2000, overall equipment efficiency in the whole company had reached 80.72%. Comparing with the major competitor¡¦s 67% before initiating TPM programs, 57.6% for Chunghwa Picture Tubes, Ltd., 65.6% for Taiwan YAMAHA Motor Corp. who were all awarded TPM Excellent Award, SYSCO faced more difficulties and it¡¦s not easy trying to greatly promote the overall equipment efficiency through TPM programs. However up to 2002, the overall equipment efficiency in the company had reached 86.29%, which is due to the concrete and available schemes and procedure of TPM programs, and the ¡§continuous improvement¡¨ of the corporate culture implemented by all staff.
TPM programs were smoothly developed in SYSCO and fully supported by the top level, but, frankly speaking, during the TPM programs developing there were still some difficulties happened, such as passive resistance from few superiors and basic staff, and subcommittee organizing taking too long time, etc. As to the above problems, SYSCO had taken the solutions and produced the good effect.
