Beyond 5S - Creating a Lean Culture Revoultion
  • Dates: As Required
  • Location: In Company Course
  • Cost: £4500 + VAT

5S is widely used to define individual workplace layouts but its true power is in the development of synchronised islands of activity covering both material and information flows.

This 3 day workshop takes participants on a journey from disorganised to organised to workplace systems that support synchronicity and flow across the end to end value stream.

Workshop goals are

  • Learn how to lock in the gains of 5S
  • Understand how to engage those in the workplace with improving workflow synchronicity
  • Know how to build self managed workplace processes
  • Be able to move beyond the theory of 5S to improve all aspects of daily working.

 

  • Overview

    Learn how to lock in the gains of 5S by developing work spaces that synchronise all aspects of daily work including:

    • Receiving work instructions
    • Time management/work tracking
    • Materials, tools and spares management
    • Research/information finding
    • Dynamic workload balancing
    • Administration/QA
    • Control of compliance protocols

    Understand how to engage those in the workplace with systematically improving Work Space Synchronicity to:

    • Increase work plan adherence
    • Adapt to variability in materials, people and order flow
    • Efficiently incorporate agency/temporary personnel at times of peak loading
    • Simplify control and compliance
    • Reduce human error risks
    • Release of management and support personnel from day to day activities to focus on higher added value tasks.

    This 3 day workshop covers the theory and practice of work space design and the practical steps to deliver self-managed work processes. Processes that are easy to do right, difficult to do wrong and easy to learn. The outcomes includes:-

    • Simplified, more resilient shop floor production, maintenance, planning, quality assurance and training processes.
    • Transfer of management and support function standard work to front line teams
    • Improve door to door quality cost and delivery performance
    • A customised roadmap to guide the journey from passive to synchronised workspaces.
