what is 5S?
 benefits of this methodology come from deciding what should be
kept, where It should be kept, and how it should be stored.
 The implementation of 5S is by assigning everything a location

so time is not wasted by looking for things.

 SEIRI involves going through all the

tools, materials, etc., in the plant and
work area and keeping only essential
items. Everything else is stored or
discarded
PRINCIPLES OF SEIRI
 CLASSIFICATION:
 Classification of necessary items on the basis of
function and frequency of use
 ELIMINATION:
 Removing all un necessary items
 APPROPRIATE STORAGE:
 All necessary items are stored at appropriate
locations so they are readily accessible when needed
BENEFITS OF SEIRI

 Space availability
 Less accidents due to space availability

SEITON - ORDERLINESS

arrangement
 PURPOSE:
 A place for everything and everything in its
place
 Functional storage to increase efficiency
 Eliminate search time
PRINCIPLES OF SEITON
A PLACE OF EVERYTHING:
 All tools are placed in specified places as per
standardized quantities such as hardware bin, rack,
pallets etc.
 The storage should be considered on the basis of
ergonomics
 MATCHING THE PRODUCTION FLOW:

 Storage should be designed on the basis of
production flow. For example hanging tools and
moving trolleys can reduce walking time
BENEFITS OF SEITON
 Increased whole efficiency
 Avoiding mistakes
 Improved safety
SEISO - CLEANING
 SEISO means “Cleaning”
 It involves the need to keep the workplace clean as well

as neat.
 The key point is that maintaining cleanliness should be

part of the daily work - not an occasional activity

direction of flow, indication on valves for open or
close, green painted walkway on a factory floor to
show the walking track for people
BENEFITS OF SEIKETSU

 SAFETY
 All items are visible
 Potential safety hazards labeled
 Less congestion
 NEATNESS
 Orderly arrangement
 Systematic
 Only needed items
 LESS FATIGUE
 No unnecessary movement
 Reduce needed movement
 Reduce distance of movement
 FASTER
 Easy identification
