TSMA Peer Groups

Conversations that occur among peers are often the best way to learn about the latest industry trends and how to find solutions to common business problems. A TSMA Corporate membership allows you to join one of the established peer groups.   

What are peer groups and how are they formed?            

TSMA peer groups are a confidential forum for company decision makers to meet on a regular basis and gain practical knowledge and counsel from peers on the challenges and opportunities facing today’s manufacturers.  TSMA peer groups are constantly evolving, and new peer groups are formed based on member interest.  

What are current peer group topics?

The current TSMA peer groups are:

• Engineering Managers Peer Group

• Lean Peer Group

• Energy Conservation Peer Group

• Equipment Reliability & Maintenance Peer Group

• Safety Peer Group

• Global Business Peer Group

• Information Technology (IT) Peer Group
