What is needed for successful 5S is proper implementation with employee engagement as well as effective sustainment systems. Management must follow a standard to manage Plan Do Check Act (PDCA). Following PDCA, this book outlines how to: Plan the 5s activity, Do the 5s initiative, and Check daily if the original Plan is sufficient. During the Check phase, you determine whether you should continue following the original Plan, or if not, Act in changing the plan, and repeat the PDCA cyle. This book shows how to attain an stability for a proper Lean Foundation (with 5S through standard work).
