Total Productive Manufacturing (TPM) and Statistical Process Control (SPC) have similar objectives in that both strive to maintain optimal performance of processes and equipment. The effectiveness of both is also enhanced through the involvement of operators in cross-functional teams. Cypress Semiconductor is successfully integrating SPC into its TPM structure
