In-house instructors as a guarantee for stable and correct MTM application – in Germany and worldwideThe role of in-house instructors is becoming increasingly important in the international application and dissemination of MTM. They support management and works councils in the introduction and application of the process language MTM.
After training as a steel construction fitter and then studying mechanical engineering at Aalen University of Applied Sciences, I joined Robert Bosch GmbH on 1 January 1991.
In the Central Standardisation Office, I dealt with standards relating to product documentation. In my subsequent position as a work planner in a factory, existing REFA knowledge was further deepened and I successfully completed MTM training up to the level of internal MTM instructor. Subsequently, I was in charge of work and time management at various locations in the company. With a change to BSH Hausgeräte GmbH, I had the opportunity to help shape the BSH production system and introduce it worldwide. Since 2017, I have been in a central function at Robert Bosch GmbH and am responsible for industrial engineering and MTM qualification worldwide. -
