6S Workplace Organization
Does your desk look like our old friend Milton’s?
To the untrained eye, it might look like it’s impossible to find materials, supplies, and information when you need it. But you have your “system,” feel comfortable, and refuse to change your ways.
I urge you try this experiment.
Every time a colleague or a client requests a file or piece of information, time yourself to see how long it takes you.
Can you accomplish this in under 30 seconds every time or are you spending considerable time searching for things?
Wouldn’t you rather be able to find the information you need easily?
6S workplace organization is the answer!
What is 6S Workplace Organization?
6S Workplace Organization (“6S”) is a disciplined continuous improvement process in which workers leverage visual controls to create and maintain an organized, safe, clean, and productive workplace.
6S is often the first initiative organizations take on their Lean transformation journeys.
This approach helps organizations lay the foundation for establishing standard work and driving ongoing process improvement
