“Core data” has now been in successful use for some 15 years in the UK and some other countries and is the basis from which a large number of standard data systems have been developed for work as varied as woodworking, electronic and mechanical assembly and the needle trades. More recently, the system documentation and training materials have been updated, tested and improved and submitted to the International MTM Directorate for scrutiny. This article outlines the MTM Core Data system and the methodology and results of validation tests conducted by the United Kingdom MTM Association. After stringent evaluation of the test results and the revised materials, the evaluation of the test results and the revised materials, the International MTM Directorate have granted recognition and approval to MTM Core Data as a properly developed and documented MTM system.
