    Less idle time will reduce the cost per factory hour and this will increase the TPAR.

    But that is not what you asked!!!

    If there are several process then there will indeed be a bottleneck and the TPAR is only calculated for the bottleneck. Less idle time in a non-bottleneck process will not improve the TPAR.
