Abstract. Today, only those companies which are capable of
permanent
and fast adaptation to quickly-changing conditions can survive. The
customer
expects an excellent quality of products or services offered to him,
and
pays only those prices which are more favorable than the competition in
the market. In order for a company to remain competitive and maintain
maximal
efficiency and availability of all its plants, what is needed is an
approach
different from the traditional concept of maintenance. The concept
which
enables maximal efficiency of plants must take into account the entire
system, man-plant-environment; besides, it must apply continual
measures
to prevent all losses, whereby the maintenance process is permanently
improved.
This is possible to achieve by applying Total Productive Maintenance
and
Six Sigma concept in the maintenance of plants, which, through
autonomous
maintenance, places greater responsibility on operators concerning the
state of the plant they are in charge of, which relieves maintainers,
develops
mutual confidence between operators and maintainers, increases the
morals,
and ensures greater commitment to work. All this ensures the
achievement
of a World-Class company through continual improvement of the
maintenance
process, with the ultimate goal of reaching the Six Sigma level.
Key Words: Six Sigma, TPM, Maintenance, Technical Systems,
Improvement
of Processes.
SIX SIGMA KONCEPT U PROCESU ODRŽAVANJA
TEHNIČKIH SISTEMA
Danas na tržištu opstaju samo ona preduzeća koja su sposobna za stalno
i brzo prilagođavanje uslovima koji se menjaju velikom brzinom. Kupac
očekuje
izuzetan kvalitet proizvoda ili usluga koje mu se pružaju, a plaća samo
cene koje su povoljnije od konkurencije na tržištu. Da bi preduzeće
ostalo
konkurentno i održalo maksimalnu efikasnost i raspoloživost svojih
postrojenja,
potreban je pristup koji se razlikuje od tradicionalnog koncepta
održavanja.
Koncept koji omogućuje maksimalnu efikasnost postrojenja mora da
posmatra
celokupni sistem: čovek-postrojenje-okruženje i primenjuje kontinualne
mere za otklanjanje svih gubitaka, čime se proces održavanja stalno
poboljšava.
Ovo je moguće ostvariti primenom totalnog produktivnog održavanja i Six
Sigma koncepta u održavanju postrojenja, koji preko autonomnog
održavanja
rukovaocima daje veću odgovornost za stanje postrojenja koje im je
povereno,
čime se rasterećuju održavaoci, razvija međusobno poverenje između
rukovaoca
i održavaoca, povećava moral i postiže veća privrženost poslu. Sve ovo
omogućava postizanje World-Class preduzeća, kontinualnim unapređenjem i
poboljšanjem procesa održavanja, sa konačnim ciljem dostizanja nivoa
Six
Sigma.
