infographic5sWHAT IS 5S
5S is a system to reduce waste that optimises productivity and quality by maintaining an orderly workplace. 5S forms a solid foundation upon which many organisations base their drive for CI. ?
The company that can do well with 5S can also do well with all the other
practices. The company that cannot even implement basic 5S will not be able to
do any of the other things required of a competitive organisation.

— e.g. defective parts
were not separated

boxes of supplies
are left in a walkway
causing someone to
trip and get injured.

e.g. the person sent to
get a part or tool could
not find it.
2. Waiting waste — e.g.

that contains needed
tools.
