    5S BASIC TRAINING

    What is 5S and why do we want to do it?

    What is 5S and why do we want to do it?


    5S is short for: Sort, Set in Order, Shine, Standardize
    and Sustain
    5S represents 5 disciplines for maintaining a visual
    workplace (visual controls and information systems).
    These are foundational to Kaizen (continuous
    improvement) and a manufacturing strategy based "Lean
    Manufacturing" (waste removing) concepts.
    5S is one of the activities that will help ensure our
    companys survival.

    5S
    1. Sort - All unneeded tools, parts and supplies are
    removed from the area
    2. Set in Order - A place for everything and everything is
    in its place
    3. Shine - The area is cleaned as the work is performed
    4. Standardize - Cleaning and identification methods are
    consistently applied
    5. Sustain - 5S is a habit and is continually improved
    Also - Work areas are safe and free of hazardous or
    dangerous conditions

    Some New Words


    Lean Manufacturing-concepts that seek continuous
    improvement by removing waste in processes
    Some Japanese words you need to know:
    Kaizen- improvement
    Kaizen Event -Planned improvements to a
    specific area or process (usually take 3 to 5 days).
    5S Events focus on making 5S improvements.
    Muda-(pronounced moo da) - waste
    Gemba- workplace

    New Words - Continued


    Kanban- Pull type inventory control system. Items are
    only produced to meet customer needs. The request to
    produce more is signaled from an upstream operation
    and/or customer orders.
    OTHER PROBLEM SOLVING TOOLS
    Ask Why Five Times A concept that allows one to get to
    the real cause (root Cause) of a problem.

    Some 5S Examples

    Before 5S

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

    5S Examples - Sort, Straighten

    See the difference?


    1. Sort - All unneeded tools, parts and supplies are removed
    from the area
    2. Straighten- A place for everything and everything is
    in its place

    5S Examples - Shine

    3. Shine - The area is cleaned as the work is performed


    (best) and\or there is a routine to keep the work area
    clean.

    5S Examples - Standardize
    4. Standardize - Cleaning and identification methods
    are consistently applied
    Departments have weekly 5S tours
    Every job has duties that use Sort, Set in Order and
    Shine
    We all have common duties to do our part to keep all
    areas of the plant in shape - breakroom, restrooms,
    locker area, parking lot, etc

    5S Examples - Sustain
    5. Sustain - 5S is a habit and is continually improved
    5S is a simple concept with powerful results.
    You will get additional information on 5S so that you
    will be well equipped.
    Our experience is that the more we do 5S the better the
    work environment becomes: cleaner, safer, more
    organized, the work is easier, less confusion and less
    stress.
    Use the 5S (work\home\play) - The more you use it the
    easier it becomes and life just gets better and better.

    The Good, Bad and the Ugly


    First the Bad and the Ugly - Life Without 5S

    The Good

    What is Waste (Muda)?


    Some of the main forms of waste are:
    Overproduction
    Waiting for materials, machines, or instruction
    Transportation or movement
    Excessive inventory
    Inefficient machine processing and/or operation
    Producing defects
    Part or line changeover or machine setup
    Inadequate housekeeping
    Miscommunication or inadequate instruction

    Improvement (Kaizen) Principles


    Get rid of all old (false) assumptions.
    Don't look for excuses, look for ways to make it
    happen . . Don't worry about being perfect - even if you
    only get it
    half right start NOW!
    It does not cost money to do KAIZEN.
    If something is wrong Fix it NOW.
    Good ideas flow when the going gets
    tough.
    Ask "WHY" five times to get to the
    root cause.
    Look for wisdom from Ten people
    rather than one.
    Never stop doing KAIZEN.

    Kaizen Suggestions
    Whenever you identify a problem, think of the best
    possible solution to the same problem.
    Share your suggestion with your line supervisor or local
    Kaizen Coach.
    Request for a suggestion receipt and note down the
    suggestion.
    Submit your suggestion to the 5S captain.
    Implement the improvement on the spot even as you await
    for feedback from the captain.
    Your suggestion will be entered in the suggestion register
    at the Kaizen Office!!

    Summary
    5-S is for you.
    Clean-up and organize your work area every day so that
    each new day is easier and safer than the day before
    Share your input with your leaders so that the tools you
    need will be available to you, increasing your efficiency.
    Volunteer to help with the 5S tours and 5S events.
    Take a good look around...Imagine zero waste/zero
    confusion!
