On 31 August 2006 Relogica under partnership with the CTPM, conducted their first public Introduction to TPM³ workshop at the Mulia Hotel in Jakarta. Ross Kennedy presented the workshop which was attended by some of Indonesia’s leading mining and manufacturing companies including South Pacific Viscose, Thiess Contractors Indonesia, International Nickel Indonesia; Kaltim Prima Coal and Freeport Indonesia.

Alec Hutcheon, one of the founding directors of Relogica commented that he was extremely pleased with the response from industry to TPM³ and was looking forward to assisting local industry to commence their TPM³ journeys to further their quest for World Class Performance.

CTPM sees the opportunity to support Relogica to establish TPM³ in Indonesia as a means to keep in touch with improvement developments within Indonesian industry so as to better service our Australasian members.

The TPM³ Pillar Workshops have been specifically developed to assist Company Leaders to enhance their knowledge of the practical application of the TPM³ core & support pillars.

Several of our clients now describe TPM³ as Australasian Lean as it is a structured, yet flexible and practical, phased journey to Lean Production initially focusing on equipment performance as a driver to rapidly bring benefits to shareholders, customers and employees. Others see it as a proven company wide improvement strategy that initially focuses on equipment performance with the flexibility and capability to allow management to expand the methodology throughout the entire supply chain, ultimately involving everyone.
