1. Lean Training
5S

2. Agenda
What is it?
What’s it for?
How does it work?
When do you use it?
What’s an example?

3. What is it?
5S is a workplace organization
technique
It is a way to involve associates in the
ownership of their workspace
It helps create and maintain the
efficiency and effectiveness of a work
area
5S is a common starting point for Lean activities in a company

4. What’s it for?
It is a way to create:
Cleaner work areas
More organization
Safer working conditions
Less wasted time
Efficient work processes and practices
More available space

5. How does it work?
5S is most effective when applied in a
systematic way
The following video illustrates the 5S
methodology
5S Video

6. The Five S’s
Sorting–separating the needed from the
not-needed
Simplifying–a place for everything and
everything in its place, clean and ready to use
Systematic Cleaningor Sweeping–
cleaning for inspection
Standardizing–developing common
methods for consistency
Sustaining–holding the gains and
improving

7. The First S -Sorting
Separating the Needed from the Not-
Needed
Eliminate not-needed items and perform
an initial cleaning
Establish criteria/handling of items
Identify not-needed items
Move not-needed items to holding area
Conduct a white-elephant sale
Conduct an initial cleaning

8. The Second S -Simplifying
A place for everything and everything in
its place, clean and ready to use
Arrange workplace for safety and efficiency
Identify key equipment and supplies
Determine location for each item
Outline locations and zones
Develop shadow boards, label items
Document layout, equipment, supplies

9. The Third S –Systematic Cleaning
Cleaning for Inspection
Perform daily cleaning and inspection
to understand work conditions
Identify points to check for performance
Determine acceptable performance
Determine visual indicators/controls
Mark equipment/controls
Conduct daily cleaning/inspections

10. The Fourth S -Standardizing
Developing Common Methods for
Consistency
Make abnormal conditions noticeable
and document agreements
Document agreements and checks
Establish/document standard methods
across similar work areas
Document new standard methods

11. The Fifth S -Sustaining
Holding the Gains and Improving
Maintain the gains from other 5S
activities and improve
Determine 5S Level of Achievement
Perform routine checks
Analyze results of routine checks
Measure progress and plan for
continuous improvement

12. Getting Started
Planning–launches your 5S activity
Evaluating–tells you what you need
to do
Preparing–gets you ready for
implementation

13. Planning
Assemble a 5S Lead team
Define the work area 5S boundaries
Assign work group members to their 5S areas
Install a 5S communication board
Determine 5S targets, activities, and schedule
Review/finalize plans with work group and
site leadership

Level 5:
Continuously
Improve
Needed it ems are rout inely
reworked/ replaced as
needed t o improve work area
perf ormance
Needed it ems can be
ret rieved wit hin 30 seconds
and require a minimum
number of st eps
Problem sources are
document ed wit h solut ions

labeling, inspect ions, and
work place design are
cont inually improved and
shared ext ernally as
applicable
Root causes have been
eliminat ed and improvement

Level 4:
Focus on
Reliability
Needed it ems are rout inely
assessed against business

and f it
Needed it ems have been
minimized in number/ size and
are properly arranged f or

Sources and f requency of
problems are document ed as
part of rout ine work, root

correct ive act ion plans are
developed
Level 3:
