Five S+2

SET

The second "S" is SET...

A place for everything and everything in its place. To arrange essential items so that they are easy to locate and easy to use. To make it obvious something is missing or does not belong there.

But Set also includes evaluating ergonomics, value added vs non-value added, elimination of waste, and continuous improvement.

The objective is to arrange the work area so that discrepancies can easily be identified and corrected. When your workplace has been Set, the employees spend less time looking for things and less energy performing their work.
