5S Techniques

5S good housekeeping and workplace organization is a set of basic management principles that are
widely adopted in industries today. Also commonly known as "5S System," "5S Method" and "5S Pillars,"
the cornerstone of 5S is that untidy, cluttered work areas are unproductive. 5S is a powerful
improvement process that gets impressive results. In a nutshell, the five principles or pillars are defined
as Sort, Set in Order, Shine, Standardize, and Sustain. Because these words begin with S, they are
commonly referred to as 5S.
