5S is one of the first tools that can be applied in a company that is starting down the path of a continuous improvement culture. A 5S implementation helps to define the first rules to eliminate waste and maintain an efficient, safe, and clean work environment. It was first popularized by Taiichi Ohno, who designed the Toyota Production System, and Shigeo Shingo, who also put forward the concept of poka-yoke. The 5S methodology is easy for everyone to start using. It doesn’t require any technical analysis and can be implemented globally in all types of companies, ranging from manufacturing plants to offices, small businesses to large multinational organizations — and in both private and public sectors. Its simplicity, practical applicability, and visual nature make it an engaging aid for operators, directors, and customers alike.
