20. Suggestion &Recommendation
• Since Sabah Economic Development Corporation
(SEDCO) did not implement FIVE (5) S yet within
their organization, researchers believe these
improvement tools are more powerful tools that can
be implemented at lower cost.
• A critical factor to successfully implementing and
sustaining the benefits of a 5S program is the
significant role employees will play. Actual areas of
facility are chosen for improvement (Office, Filing
room, toilet, library as well as the whole
organization). These areas serve as the practical
hands-on exercises for the application of each 5S
technique.
