REVIEW MATERIALS

Training facilities are structures provided for learning purposes.

 Practical Work Area – This area is where the trainee acquires the skills and
knowledge components of the competencies prescribed by the standard.
 Learning Resource Center - This area provides the trainee with the knowledge
requirements in the various modules responding to the competencies. It is a
place where projects can be planned and self-paced learning is based.
 Institutional Assessment Area –This is where recognition of prior learning is
done by the trainer. This component also provides the mechanism of assessing
the completion of competencies of a trainee.
 Contextual Learning Laboratory – This facility ensures that the underpinning
knowledge, the science, mathematics and communication principles as applied
to the technology are provided to the trainee.
 Quality control – Various test aside from metrology and calibration are
conducted in this area including in-process quality control.
 Trainers Resource Area – This area houses the learning materials, the training
regulations and curriculum exemplars. This is also the place where instructors
produce courseware or training materials.
 Distance Learning Area –This is to enable the learning provision outside and
away from the training institution in the term of print and non-print media.
 Computer Laboratory – This area depicts the major physical change in the
delivery – the use of Information technology.
Training Equipment and Supplies
Training equipment is usually placed in the practical work area or the trainee resource
area. The sizes and uses of equipment vary in the different training qualifications and
generally classified into five (5):
1. Large items of equipment – motor vehicles, industrial sewing machines
2. Small items of equipment – video/tape recorder, espresso machine
3. Simple equipment – electric fan, floor polisher
4. Complex equipment – plasma cutting machine, simulator (automotive)
5. Equipment with significant health and safety implications – duplicator machine

Manual from the Manufacturers (Instruction Manual or User’s Manual)

 In order to identify and plan the maintenance activities and schedule of
equipment, it is necessary for the users and other concerned individuals or office
to know the operation of each equipment or facility.
 It is usually accompanying the tool, equipment or facility, is essential in this
aspect. Any office/institution may device the standard operating procedure in
using such tool, equipment or facility.

Maintenance is an excellent means of improving the performance and condition of

equipment and facilities.
The Growth of Interest in Maintenance
The factors contributing to the rapidly growing interest in maintenance are:
1. Technological development
2. Increasingly expensive raw materials
3. Greater complication
4. Increased fixed costs
5. Reduce delayed activities and eradicate uncompleted work
6. Environmental concern
Why Maintain?
General Objective:
• To keep the optimum condition of physical facilities at acceptable levels and minimum
cost to satisfy the expected of programs, services and activities at acceptable and
minimum costs
Specific Objectives:
• To extend the useful life of physical facilities
• To assure the operational readiness of installed equipment and maximum possible
return on investments
• To properly discard hazardous wastes
• To ensure the safety of personnel using the facilities, physical properties and the
environment
What can we gain from maintaining our facilities?
• Ensured SAFE environment • Improved MORALE of human resources
• Reduced operational COST
• Increased PRODUCTION
• Prolonged LIFE of facilities
• Prompt DELIVERY of services/product
• WASTE/Garbage reduction
Who are involved?
• Who will manage the activities?
• Who will monitor and evaluate the operations?
• Who will prepare the maintenance schedule?
• Who will implement the program?
• Who will keep the records?
• Who will conduct inspection?
• Who will certify and accept the work?
• Who will prepare the report?
What, Where, When?
• What routine actions must be done to keep the device on working order?
• Where is the maintenance activity to be carried out?
• When do you perform the maintenance activities?
How to maintain?
The question on how do we implement the maintenance program will center on the 5Ms
are as follows:
• Manpower
• Money (Financial Resources)
• Methods and System
• Machines (Facilities)
• Materials and Supplies
 Maintenance Program is a comprehensive list of maintenance and its incidents.
This would include all maintenance activities to be undertaken, manpower needed,
maintenance methods to be used, all the materials and supplies needed and cost
involved in the maintenance.
 Maintenance Schedule is a list allocating specific maintenance of an area,
including equipment and tools to a specific period.
 Maintenance Checklist is a list of maintenance tasks (preventive or predictive)
typically derived through some form of analysis, generated automatically as work
orders at a predetermined frequency.
1. What is the most important reason why we maintain our facilities?
A. Assure readiness of installed equipment
2. It is a comprehensive list of maintenance and its incidence.
C. Maintenance Program
3. The best reference for the proper use and maintenance of an equipment
is the __________.
D. Manufacturer’s Manuals
4. The 5Ms in the maintenance program are _____________.
D. Manpower, materials, methods, maintenance and money
Quality management is a method for ensuring that all the activities necessary to
design, develop and implement a product or service are effective with respect to the
system and its performance Quality management can be considered to have 3 main
components – quality control, quality assurance and quality improvement. Quality
management focuses not only on product/service quality but also the means to achieve
it. Quality management therefore uses quality assurance and control of processes as
well as products to achieve more consistent quality.

5S is the name of a workplace organization methodology that uses a list of five
Japanese words which are Seiri(Sort), Seiton(Systematize), Seiso(Sweep),
Seiketsu(Standardize) And Shitsuke(Self-Discipline).
 Safety, as defined may be the freedom from danger injury or damage, as well as
security, are integral parts of the housekeeping system.
Total Productive Maintenance (TPM) system is the systematic analysis, planning,
control and application of work and materials in economic amounts by competent
personnel to ensure orderly and continuous functioning of all productive resources.
 Main objective is to keep and improve production facilities stable and efficient at
the lowest life cycle cost with the active participation of all members in the
organization. Specifically, its purposes are:
• To increase productivity through maximum utilization and improvement of all available
equipment
• To develop maintenance system to reduce life cycle cost of machinery and equipment
through the involvement of everybody in the organization.
• To develop operator’s capability to be competent in maintenance activities through
education, training and motivation.
• To enhance capability for advanced and sophisticated technology that would reinforce
competitive power
