Lean Tool: 6S: Manufacturing

By Juran

6S is a technique that was developed by the Japanese to remove clutter from the work area, organize the workplace to help prevent defects from happening, and improve work flow.It is one of the basic elements of Lean that an organization can implement. It is a great improvement tool that is very easy to install and brings "order out of chaos."Readers will be comfortable demonstrating 6S tools to create a more efficient and orderly workplace, will learn how to create a plan to implement 6S full time, and will be able to define the benefits of standardizing key tasks in the workplace. This technique should be put in place prior to the project solution being implemented because it can yield additional results on its own merits. Also, the final solution implementation will be easier to put in place if this technique is done first.
