Abstract


The study aimed to assess the effectiveness of the 5S practice, a methodology aimed at enhancing productivity and efficiency in organizations, in a specific company. The study involved conducting a comprehensive audit of the selected divisions using a 5S checklist, and the results showed that the company had poor 5S practices prior to implementation but significantly improved after the implementation of the 5S approach, with the performance rating increasing from 1.6 to 3.44. The study also identified areas for improvement, such as difficulties in obtaining materials, insufficient maintenance of machinery, and disorganized workplaces. This study highlights the importance of continuous improvement and the need for organizations to embrace the 5S approach for success in today's competitive business environment. The results underscore the significance of 5S as a tool for improving efficiency and productivity and emphasize the need for organizations to conduct regular audit processes to identify areas for improvement and ensure continuous improvement. The findings of this study provide valuable insights for organizations looking to implement the 5S practice.
