Benefits
5S

• The benefits of 5S are primarily concerned with
  creating an effective and efficient working
  environment.
• For organisations implementing 5S as part of a
  Lean Organisation program, 5S gives two
  additional benefits
• It makes implementing other techniques much
  easier. In fact many other techniques just will
  not work unless 5S is in place.
• It introduces the people in the organisation to
  the concept of continuous improvement, and allows
  the skills and disciplines they have learned as
  part of 5S to be used in new ways to benefit the
  organisation.
