“The 5S’s @ Boeing” provides an overview of the principles of 5S and demonstrates that dramatic improvements in efficiency can be achieved in the workplace organized by this principle. “5S: What’s Next?” expands on the first title by examining ‘levels of excellence’ experienced by groups that work toward having a self-sustaining and constantly process-improving work environment.

Each element of 5S - Sorting, Simplifying, Sweeping, Standardizing, and Self-discipline – is also discussed in further detail and in relation to the five levels of excellence. The program provides a clear understanding of how a fully implemented 5S program develops and is maintained into the future. Appropriate for any work environment whether factory, office or laboratory.
