5S Audit
Consistent process for executing a 5S Audit and capturing issues that provides reliable follow up and learning for the organization.
ACTIVATING THE UNTAPPED POTENTIAL OF THE FRONTLINE
Today's Challenges
5S Audits are performed at inconsistent timeframes and with a variety of checklists. Findings are not always addressed due to lack of visibility and manual processes
- 5S opportunities are identified and addressed in an informal way (e.g. Manual, Whatsapp, MSFT Teams)
- No official way to track the historical issues detected
- Lack of visibility into the findings from 5S audits results in solving the same issues again and again
- Using email to send track 5S audit activity and results does not provide insights into performance
