The purpose of this paper is to evaluate the contribution of Total Productive Maintenance (TPM) in improving the operational efficiency of an automobile component manufacturing company. It explains the steps in implementation of TPM. The paper also explains the way in the organizational objectives as stated in the vision and mission of the organization can be realized using TPM. TPM is a Japanese approach of maintenance that maximizes machine utilization through better utilization of maintenance and production resources. TPM activities lead to good results and contribute to improve the operational efficiency parameters PQCDSM (Productivity, Quality, Cost, Delivery, Safety and Morale). Employee involvement is the key to improve the operational efficiency. The aim of TPM is zero BAD i.e. zero breakdown, zero accidents and zero defects. The entire process from declaration, target setting to master plan for achieving the results is explained with the help of a case study.Keywords
