Is there a limit to when 5S is taken too far? Is 5S the first required step for every lean transformation? How does 5S increase the effectiveness of the entire organization and not just the shop floor?
For episode number 2 of Continuous Improvement Journey’s podcast, we will be exploring the topic...“When 5S Goes Too Far.”
The lean tool of 5S is a wonderful tool used to improve your organization's effectiveness. However, some organizations go a little too far with their 5S programs.
Learn how to find the balance between the 5S improvement tool and the purpose of why the tool was designed in the first place so you don't run into the issue of implementing the dreaded 5S police or inflicting 5S on your clocks, garbage cans, and coat racks.
