Practical Approach
Many companies today are implementing 5S as part of their Lean initiatives to reduce cost and improve efficiency. 
If your company is considering implementing a 5S program you will need a plan. To improve your chance of success you will require a clear direction with well thought out goals and objectives.
Implementing any new business program without defining clear objectives, specific directions and preparing a plan of action is like going on trip with no idea of where you’re going or how you are going to get there. You are likely to get nowhere fast.
We will provide you with the guidance and direction that match your unique wants and needs.
The program aims to provide participants with an understanding of basic concepts of 5S, the technique and methods to be used for deployment of this concept in an organization and demonstrate some practical examples on the use of these techniques. Equip participants with the skill to implement 5S approach for continual improvement in their organization.
