A STRATEGY FOR PERFORMANCE

EXCELLENCE

The 5S Philosophy
Based on Japanese words that begin with S, the 5S Philosophy focuses
on effective work place organization and standardized work procedures.
5S simplifies your work environment, reduces waste and non-value
activity while improving quality efficiency and safety.

If youre going to do it, do it RIGHT!

Sort (Seiri)
The first S focuses on eliminating unnecessary items from the workplace.

Sort (Seiri)
An effective visual method to identify these unneeded items is called red tagging.
A red tag is placed on all items not required to complete your job. These items
are then moved to a central holding area. This process is for evaluation of the red
tag items. Occasionally used items are moved to a more organized storage
location outside of the work area while unneeded items are discarded.

Sort (Seiri)

If you dont use it,


move it!

Sort (Seiri)
Sorting frees up valuable floor space and eliminates such things as
broken tools, obsolete jigs and fixtures, scrap and excess raw material.
The Sort process also helps prevent the hoarder job mentality (I might
need it).

Set in Order (Seiton)


The second S focuses on efficient and effective storage methods.
You must ask yourself these questions:

1.

What do I need to do my job?

2.

Where should I locate this item?

3.

How many do I need?

Set in Order (Seiton)


Strategies for effective Set In Order are:

Painting floors
Outlining work areas and locations
Shadow boards
Modular shelving and cabinets

A PLACE FOR EVERYTHING AND


EVERTHING IN ITS PLACE

Shine (Seiso)
Once you have eliminated the clutter and junk that has been clogging your work areas
and identified and located the necessary items, the next step is to thoroughly clean the
work area. Daily follow-up cleaning is necessary in order to sustain this improvement.
Workers take pride in a clean and clutter-free work area and the Shine step will help
create ownership in the equipment and facility.

Shine (Seiso)
Workers will also begin to notice changes in equipment and facility location such as
air, oil and coolant leaks, repeat contamination and vibration, broken, fatigue,
breakage, and misalignment. These changes, if left unattended, could lead to
equipment failure and loss of production. Both add up to impact your companys
bottom line.

Standardize (Seiketsu)
Once the first three of the 5Ss have been implemented, you should concentrate on
standardizing best practice in your work area. Allow your employees to participate in the
development and documentation of such standards. They are a valuable but often
overlooked source of information regarding their work.

Standardize (Seiketsu)
Standardize means establishing Best Manufacturing
Practices, including:

Workplace Layout and Design


Materials Handling Analysis
Clear and Concise Work Instructions
Well Defined Work Methods
Safe (Ergonomic) Working Practices
Cycle Time Reduction
Training
Documentation

Shitsuke (Self Discipline)


Always following specified and
standardized procedures
Training people to follow good work
habits and the strict observation of
workplace rules.

Steps in Shitsuke
Continue to implement the SHINE and
STANDARD stages stringently
Engage people to be involved creatively in the
implementation of 5-S
Give them the ownership and leadership
Encourage and reward positive behaviors

Some 5S Examples

Before 5S

After 5S - Cleaned,
organized and drawers
labeled (less time and
frustration hunting)

Some evidence of standardized work areas


Clear, shiny aisle ways
Color coded areas
Slogans, banners

No work-in-process ( WIP )
One-Piece Flow
Standardized Work Sheets

5S Examples - Sort, Set in Order

See the difference?


1. Sort - All unneeded tools, parts and supplies are removed
2. Set in Order - A place for everything and everything is
in its place

from the area

Before shine

after shine

The Good, Bad and the Ugly


First the Bad and the Ugly - Life Without 5S

The Good

Nice place!

There is no second chance to make the first impression!

We must bring to this level.
