A. Is Iran into LEAN Manufacturing too? I found this inquiry intriguing! 5S is a process that many plating shops would benefit from. Most plating shops stumble around looking for the right rack or tape or plugs that 5S would make readily available.

When my company embarked on a 5S project 3 years ago, we started with related books from Amazon. Also, a firm called Productivity Press from either Oregon or Washington publishes books on this subject.
The best book, and I'm going from memory now since it's at the office, is by a Goldworth or Gold_____ and is entitled "The Visual Factory."

Regards, Simon W [last name deleted for privacy by Editor]- United Kingdom 2003 Q. Dear Sir or Madam, I am being given responsibility within my company to introduce and implement the 5S philosophy. If any kind person could provide me a proven 5S audit document I would be most grateful. Manufacturing Team Leader - Coventry, England 2005 A. Before going through the audit sheets, it is absolutely necessary to create a serious linkage towards the need for 5s with our organizational goals. Then create a 5s network with your company and map the 5S requirements w.r.t to your organizational goals. Based on the organizational priorities, the 5S audit sheets are prepared and followed. For Example: Some Organization believe in Introducing 1s across the organization before moving into 2S. On the contrary some focus on all the 5S across the organization. 4.0 SEISO 4.6 Daily self cleaning (min/5 min) is practiced Training - Hosur, Tamil Nadu, India 2005
