Total productive maintenance in manufacturing industry in Malaysia

Large number of framework of Total Productive Maintenance (TPM) elements/strategies have been proposed by different authors in TPM literature. However, most of them are based on studies done in countries such as Japan, Italy, USA, China and India. Thus, this study aims to evaluate TPM elements/strat...
