High Quality - See, Create and Maintain Results

5S Process of productivity promotes smooth and efficient workflows. This system has two simple premises:

1. Workers produce more in clean, orderly work environments.

2. The best way to maintain consistently high quality work processes is to create an environment where the abnormal is immediately visible.

5S Process will have maximum impact when implemented in conjunction with initiatives such as TQM, TPM, JIT, ISO 9000.

The term “5S” is derived from five Japanese words that refer to cleanliness, order, and discipline.

5S concepts can make a very positive impression in your workplace — and in your financial statements.

5S can be a valuable contributor to a company’s “lean” productivity system.

• More satisfying Jobs
• Obstacles and frustrations removed from work
• Absenteeism reduced
• Stronger communication among workers

By improving the cleanliness and orderliness of the work environment, 5S has also driven dramatic improvements in areas such as manufacturing productivity, indirect labor costs, space requirements, throughput times.

A manufacturer reported that the 5S Process:

• Saved the company $1.2 million a year
• Reduced throughput time from 15 to 3 days
• Recovered over $100,000 in inventory
• Reduced indirect labor cost 75%
