This course is designed to train practitioners to apply MTM-2 to develop improved methods, workplace layout, better tools and fixtures to facilitate assembly operations. Candidates will be trained to a high level of proficiency in developing reliable and accurate time standards. The training also imparts expertise in the applications of MTM-2 to improve process & operational management.

As a method engineering technique, MTM-2 provides a method of translating the work activities into detailed motion sequences. This allows the engineer/analyst to describe specifically the method orientation the ways the parts are assembled and how the tools should be used to complete the sub-process activity. This detailed analysis of methods often leads to better work methods for time reduction and quality processes. MTM-2 will also provide the time required for each corresponding methods employed. Thereby, providing the necessary information to quantify the steps taken for process changes and to allow cost control to be engineered at every process operation.

The knowledge gained a practitioner course would also equip the candidate with the ability to set-up time data for cost estimating of new products and services before production starts. Other useful applications of MTM-2 include operative training development, workplace layout design and JIT cycle-time management.
