2. The 5S Approach as the Foundation for the process

In this set of tools, the 5S approach occupies a privileged place for the four following reasons:

  • The 5S approach is simple to understand and initiate.
  • The 5S approach concerns everyone (we all have a place in the work environment).
  • The 5S approach is an efficient means for changing habits and acquiring a new frame of mind.
  • The 5S approach has a direct effect on all wasteful activities and operations by improving quality, costs and lead times.
Examples :
  • Designating and defining zones on the floor will limit inventories and reduce the risk of accidents.
  • Arranging items that are used the most in an area that is closer to the workstation will reduce time lost in looking for them.
  • Detecting problems concerning cleaning inspections for mechanical devices will decrease a number of breakdowns and micro-stops.
  • Having clearly defined procedures will reduce the number of rejects and modifications.
  • ...
The 5S approach is the base for the construction of all approaches leading to progress.

Simplicity, universality and necessity are the adjectives that best characterize Lean Manufacturing foundations.

These foundations applied according to their best strategy will increase your odds for success in the layout of your business while using other Lean Manufacturing components.
