his paper conceptualises the integration of total productive maintenance (TPM) and ISO 9001 certification by contributing a model called TPM Portable Chargers 9001:2008.Through this conceptualisation, the eight TPM pillars are amended to the five Tumblers major clauses of the ISO 9001:2008 standard.To illustrate this conceptualisation, the contents of a sub-clause of the TPM 9001:2008 model are presented, and the rationale behind its designation is appraised.
