Five S+2

STANDARDIZE

The fourth "S" is STANDARDIZE...

To create guidelines and hold people accountable.

Standardize helps prevent the first three S’s from set backs. It is the “glue” that holds the first three together. Standardize helps communicate the expectations for the first three S’s. The objective is to establish guidelines so that Sort, Set, Shine become daily routine procedures.

Typical guidelines include:

Inventory
Tools
Locations
Colors
Symbols
Floor Markings
Area Checklists

1. Sort

2. Set

3. Shine

4. Standardize

5. Sustain

6. Safety

7. Smaintenance

Five S+2 is the first step in implementing

a Lean Manufacturing philosophy.

Five S+2 . . . A place for everything

and everything in its place.
