What People are Saying About This

From the Publisher

Our TPM implementation team has been looking for an operator-friendly TPM manual that is easily understood and can be used by that team as a reference as they become increasingly effective in their operation. We plan to use TPM for Every Operator as that manual.

Editorial Reviews

Not a general guide to the international quality standards, but focused specifically on understanding and implementing the appropriate and applicable documentation to allow an organization to attain and keep the certification. Totally independent chapters address different elements, detailing the documentation requirements and providing examples from a wide range of industries. Also suitable as a graduate or undergraduate text for students who are preparing either to practice or to study quality management. Annotation c. Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
