IntroductionIntroduction
•5S is a method to improve and sustain workplace
organization
•5S represents 5 disciplines for maintaining a visual
workplace (visual controls and information systems).
•These are foundational to continual improvement and a
manufacturing strategy based on "Lean Manufacturing"
(waste removing) concepts.
•Reduces clutter
•Reduces the time it takes to look for tools and
equipment
•“A place for everything and everything in its place”
•Improves how the operation appears to customers –
always be “tour ready”
•Creates pride in the workplace
•Many companies have a standard that any tool
must be able to be found within 60 seconds.
