It was really great presentation, thanks for this job. I have just started doing a research in TPM. Do you have any idea about TPM in iron and steel companies?

on 5’s and kaisen events and believe me people is the most dificult thing deal with.

Agree. For these methods to work and survive, there must be first, a cultural change.

5s does not make money its costs a fortune

5S does not make you money – it stops you wasting money, there is a difference. It should not really cost much at all to implement as it is really about workplace organisation and eliminating waste wherever you can. The savings you make will more than cover any expense you should incur. Often people do not realise what is being wasted and therefore do not see the benefits of implementing such processes.

After quick research, I finally found the original “5S” means. As I guessed, it’s originated in Japanese factory wisdom.
Seiri, Seiton, Seiso, Seiketsu, Shitsuke.
I found 4th one translated as “Standardize” rather odd. Seiketsu means more like “Spotless” or “well-sanitized”.
