Great reference guide to 5S philosophy
A small and concise guide to the 5S principles. All the steps of initiating, maintaining and improving 5S are covered in this pocket guide. The level of detail is enough to give a general overview and start improving the visual workplace without the expense of larger books. A good guide for both shopfloor and management if they are new to 5S. Great value.
