5S is one of the easiest Lean Tools to learn and implement. Results are instantaneous! It is also one of the first you should implement in your operations, whether it be shop floor or front office. We have a 5S for Production workshop as well as a 5S for Office workshop.

The 5S’s are:

  1. Sort
  2. Set-In-Order
  3. Shine
  4. Standardize
  5. Sustain

Learning Objectives:

  1. Understand the reasons for doing 5S in your Business Enterprise
  2. Work through a simple simulation to better appreciate each of the 5S’s
  3. Learn about Sort through descriptions and before-after photos of Sort from other companies
  4. Do “Red Tagging” to get started with the Sort step
  5. Learn about Set-In-Order through descriptions and before-after photos from other companies
  6. Learn about Shine through descriptions and before-after photos
  7. Learn about Standardize (how to make Sort, Set-In-Order, and Shine a part of Standard SOP)
  8. Learn about Sustain…the all-important culture of 5S.
  9. Do a 5S Baseline Audit, using a checklist and plotting results on a Radar Chart
  10. Plan for 5S Implementation in your business (shop floor or front office)

Who Should Attend:

  1. Leadership Team (Operation Managers & Supervisors)
  2. Staff (Managers, supervisors, engineers, and other individual contributors)
  3. Value Stream Team members

Duration: 1 – 2 days (depending on scope of implementation)
