| 1.7.2 Relation of 5S with KAIZEN
Imai (1997) has studied that 5S is the crucial activity in kaizen program and act as preliminary factor in order to achieve TPM in organization. The overall foundation of JIT, TQM, and TPM is the combination of kaizen and 5S (Teeravaraprug et al., 2011). Miller (2009) has suggested steps in order to use 5S to manage Kaizen. They steps are as follows: Sort the kaizen: Ideas collected from various employees are distinguished which are thought well, these ideas are sort out to find out which will be beneficial to solve the problem and bring improvement. Set the kaizen in order: Arrange in the order of importance to create the big impact, ‘A place for everything and everything in its place’ is built by 2 nd element of 5S. Sweep the kaizen: Free your mental space from unimportant, insignificant tasks and sweep your workspace for the highest priority kaizen activity. Standardize the kaizen: Standardize the set for kaizen suggestion, need of a small team and requirement of days for activity to focus on the series of project as an agenda of management. Sustain the kaizen: A framework is developed from the suggestion given by different employees within hours of their submission. The events of kaizen become rapid and answerable to real time business with the building of knowledge among number of staff in basic kaizen principles and being an expert-led initiative to an irreversible way of life. A lot of foundation building is required in order to manage the kaizen suggesting system that can control thousands of ideas so as to manage the kaizen system efficiently. Hasegawa and Karandagoda (2011) have suggested the stepwise approach from 5S to KAIZEN to TQM. They have concluded that 5S is a base of continuous team approach and TQM is the fruit for organization. 5S and kaizen initiatives together can contribute significantly to obtain the TQM, as 5S can be envisioned as roots and kaizen as trunk of the TQM tree. tải về 0.69 Mb.
