5S Implementation

Involvement is the key for a successful 5S

implementationEven if most of your employees want to adopt the principles of 5 S, activeparticipation and total involvement in the program is the key to its successfulimplementation.If you do it right, you will not just benefit from smooth-running businessoperations, but also having highly-motivated employees eager to continueon with the change process.So how could 5S be effectively implemented?Based on my experience, the following steps are the key treads that wouldbest guarantee the successful 5S implementation:

1. Choose a department to start with. As 5 S will use resources, you shouldbegin somewhere where the payback time is shortest. Do it right so that youhave a good example to set for the next. Duplicate. Replicate.2. Conduct 5S training workshops. In a production plant, the training involvesall production personnel, maintenance, managers and staff.3. Treat seiri (sort/organization) as a waste reduction activity. The goal is torelease time for housekeeping and to make housekeeping as easy aspossible. The best way to do this is to go out in the facility in cross-functionalteams and search for everything that creates unnecessary effort. Sort outunnecessary objects; mark all known problems, find leakages, and removehazards. Red-tag every problem and make an action plan that you carry out

within 30 days.4. Seiton is setting everything in order. Seiton focuses on arranging/fixingeverything starting from the easiest and most efficient access. It is theefficient placement and arrangement of equipment and materials. Inpractice, you might integrate seiton in the action plan from seiri, or it couldbe a task for empowered work teams.5. Seiso means shiny clean. Cleanliness is crucial for the acceptance of 5S.There are two goals with seiso: the first is to agree on what cleaningstandard you mutually think is right. The second goal is to document whatyou need to do to get there. Just like seiri, everybody working in the area,including managers and staff, should perform the seiso activity. Split the

area into small parts and appoint teams to take care of each. Let the teamsnote down what spring cleaning job they want to do, and ask them toestimate how often this cleaning should be repeated in the future. Finally,take a photo of the new standard. Remember that seiso is a one-time activitythe next Ss will keep up the new standard.6. Seiketsu means standardized cleanup. If you fail here, all other steps areworthless. When you come to seiketsu, you will be happy if you have a gooddocumentation of seiso. If so, you already know what the necessary

housekeeping tasks are, and you have an estimation of their intervals. Thegood news is that the new habits are not something that you have invented.Instead, they were proposed and introduced by the people doing seiso. Youjust have to decide which system you will use to schedule the proposedactivities.

7. Shitsuke is discipline and discipline should be sustained. Discipline is whatwill change the future. Even if your schedules are world class, it is useless ifyou do not follow them. Agree on a top management policy on cleaning.Place the photos from seiso on the walls; appoint people responsible for allsystems that you introduced; and use audits to prevent the level to drop.There you goa plan to implement 5S involving your employees.Be consistent, and you can expect impressive and long-term results.Oskar Olofsson, 2010
