2.0 OVERVIEW

Prior to ISO 9001:2008 QMS full-blown installation way-back July 2011 to June 2012, Pure Essence
International Inc. spearheaded the implementation of 5S attached to GMP Program as partner program
under the Quality Assurance and Control function in an effort to institutionalize the good manufacturing
practices, hygiene related norms and housekeeping standards of the Company. These are operationalized
across appropriate production lines, work areas, offices and support facilities.

While the activities are performed, changes on implementation plans as well as audit schedules were
considered early part of 2013 to improve further the housekeeping implementation as well as maintenance
of 5S standards, norms and protocols.

It is in this context that the PEI through the facilitation of Deputy QMR (reporting to QMR) in coordination
with HRDA, started calibrating the current 5S norms, guidelines, audit activities, 5S checklist, scheduling of
activities and proposed to design and develop a so called “5S and Good Housekeeping Manual” – as
presented here.

3.0 PURPOSE

This manual defines the standards, norms, guidelines and projects for the 5S and Good Housekeeping
Program of PEI.

The purposes of this 5S and Good Housekeeping Manual were to:

 Calibrate the previous structure of 5S Program;


 Design and develop a more appropriate structure including the 5S Team, roles and areas of
responsibilities of 5S Champions;
 Restructure the 5S Norms per production line, per offices and work areas;
 Standardize the coverage of 5S Norms;

5.0 ORIGIN OF 5S AND GOOD HOUSEKEEPING

5S was developed in Japan. It was first heard of as one of the techniques that enabled what was then
termed 'Just in Time (JIT) Manufacturing. The Massachusetts Institute of Technology's 5-year study into the
future of the automobile in the late 1980s identified that the term was inappropriate since the Japanese
success was built upon far more than components arriving only at the time of requirement. John Krafcik, a
researcher on the project, ascribed Lean to the collective techniques being used in Japanese automobile
manufacturing; it reflected the focus on waste in all its forms that was central to the Japanese approach.
Minimized inventory was only one aspect of performance levels in companies such as Toyota and in itself
only arose from progress in fields such as quality assurance and Andon boards to highlight problems for
immediate action.

5S was developed by Hiroyuki Hirano within his overall approach to production systems. Many Western
managers coming across the approach for the first time found the experience one of enlightenment. They
had perhaps always known the role of housekeeping within optimized manufacturing performance and had
always known the elements of best practice. However, Hirano provided a structure for improvement
programs. He pointed out a series of identifiable steps, each building on its predecessor. Western
managers, for example, had always recognized the need to decide upon locations for materials and tools

and upon the flow of work through a work area; central to this (but perhaps implicit) is the principle that
items not essential to the process should be removed – stored elsewhere or eliminated completely. By
differentiating between Seiri and Seiton, Hirano made the distinction explicit.

He taught his audience that any effort to consider layout and flow before the removal of the unnecessary
items was likely to lead to a sub-optimal solution.

Equally the Seiso, or cleanliness, phase is a distinct element of the change program that can transform a
process area. Hirano's view is that the definition of a cleaning methodology (Seiso) is a discrete activity, not
to be confused with the organization of the workplace, and this helps to structure any improvement
program. It has to be recognized, however, that there is inevitably an overlap between Seiton and Seiso.
Western managers understood that the opportunities for various cleanliness methodologies vary with the
layout and storage mechanisms adopted. However, breaking down the improvement activity in this way
clarifies that the requirements for the cleanliness regime must be understood as a factor in the design
aspect of Seiton. As noted by John Bicheno, Toyota's adoption of the Hirano approach, is '4S', with Seiton
and Seiso combined – presumably for this very reason. The improvement team must avoid the trap of
designing the work area and then considering the cleanliness or tidiness mechanism.

Hirano also reminded the world of the Hawthorne effect. We can all introduce change and while people in
the business consider the change program to be under management focus the benefits of the change will
continue, but when this focus has moved (as is inevitably the case) performance once more slips. Western
managers, in particular, may have benefited from the distinction between the procedural or mechanical
elements, Seiketsu, of keeping these matters in focus and the culture change, Shitsuke, which is a distinct
approach to bringing about a new way of working. A number of publications on the subject in the West have
questioned whether this culture can really be tackled as part of an exercise of relatively limited scope. The
broader kaizen, or continuous improvement, approach is built, among other things, upon the company's
valuation of all members of the workforce. If employees don't feel valued within the overall company culture,
perhaps the change required falls outside the limits of a housekeeping improvement program.

6.0 5S STANDARDIZATION

Seiri-Sorting

Eliminate all unnecessary tools, parts, documents, records, and instructions. Go through all tools, materials,
and so forth in the , admin areas, plant and work area. Keep only essential items and eliminate what is not
required, prioritizing things per requirements and keeping them in easily-accessible places. Everything else
is stored or discarded. Any work area should only have the items needed to perform the work in the area.
All other items should be cleared (sorted out) from the work area.

Seiton-Straightening or Setting in Order

Arranging tools, parts, documents, records, and instructions in such a way that the most frequently used
items are the easiest and quickest to locate. The purpose of this step is to eliminate time wasted in
obtaining the necessary items for an operation. Everything in the work area should have a place and
everything should be in its place.

Seiso-Sweeping or Shine

Standardized cleaning-point at a 5S organized plant. Clean the workspace, tools, parts, documents,
records, and instructions and all equipment, and keep it clean, tidy and organized. At the end of each shift,
clean the work area and be sure everything is restored to its place. This makes it easy to know what goes
where and ensures that everything is where it belongs. Not only should the work area be clear, it should
also be clean. Cleanliness involves housekeeping efforts, improving the appearance of the work area, and
even more importantly, preventive housekeeping - keeping the work area from getting dirty, rather than just
cleaning it up after it becomes dirty.

Seiketsu-Standardizing

All work stations for a particular job should be identical. All employees doing the same job should be able to
work in any station with the same tools that are in the same location in every station. Everyone should know
exactly what his or her responsibilities are for adhering to the first 3 S's. Synonym : Systematize. Everyone
in the work area and in the organization must be involved in the 5S effort, creating best practices and then
getting everyone to "copy" those best practices the same way, everywhere, and every time. Work area
layouts and storage techniques should be standardized wherever possible.

Shitsuke-Sustaining the Practice

Maintain and review standards. Once the previous 4 S's have been established, they become the new way
to operate. Maintain focus on this new way and do not allow a gradual decline back to the old ways. While
thinking about the new way, also be thinking about yet better ways. When an issue arises such as a
suggested improvement, a new way of working, a new tool or a new output requirement, review the first 4
S's and make changes as appropriate. It should be made as a habit and be continually improved. It's tough
to keep a 5S effort, or any improvement effort for that matter, going. The 5S's involve a culture change. And
to achieve a culture change, it has to be ingrained into the organization - by everyone at all levels in the
organization.
