 Discovery of 5S
Thirty years ago, researchers started studying the secret for success of
Japanese manufacturing companies.
• It was Takashi Osada who developed 5s within his overall approach to
production systems.
• 5s turned out to be the most impressive ‘secret’.

Hirano provided a structure for improvement programs. He pointed out a series

of identifiable steps, each building on its predecessor.
 Why 5S?

for efficiency and effectiveness by identifying and

disorganization which can be avoided

“ A place for everything and everything in its place.”
