5S management is the basis of enterprise quality management, production management, equipment management and safety management. In recent years, more and more domestic enterprises have realized the importance of 5S management and are gradually implementing it. However, it is not optimistic that some enterprises often have similar problems in the implementation process, or shout a lot of slogans and formulate a lot of systems, but in fact it is difficult to put them into action or even impossible to implement them. Practice shows that the implementation of 5S management is a systematic project, which has to go through the process of planning, mobilization, implementation and internal inspection. In order to ensure the final effect, 5S management should also combine every process and step in management to plan out various concrete and feasible management methods, implementation plans and inspection standards.

Careful planning and deployment

Carrying out 5S management is like fighting a war. In order to win, we must make careful planning and deployment in advance: we must set implementation goals and make clear requirements; Establish a leading group and organization to be responsible for the planning, planning, implementation and inspection of 5S management; All departments of the enterprise should also set up an implementation organization, put forward their own implementation plans and implementation plans according to the overall implementation plan and implementation plan of the organization, and implement them to the responsible person. Only careful planning and deployment can lay a solid foundation for the all-round development of 5S work.

Do a good job in training and raise awareness

The main purpose of 5S activity is to improve the quality of all employees, so it is an activity in which all employees participate. Without full participation, the development of 5S activities will lose its mass base and become a castle in the air. At the beginning of the implementation of 5S management, most employees may have ideological resistance because they don't understand the true meaning of 5S, thinking that they don't have time to do these "cleaning" things. As an activity that requires full participation, if most employees are not aware of it, it will not achieve good results. Therefore, in addition to paying attention to the training of key personnel in the enterprise, other personnel in the enterprise should also be trained at different levels, even step by step, so that all employees can understand and have 5S knowledge, reduce resistance and improve enthusiasm.

Promote and create an atmosphere

In order to comprehensively promote 5S management activities, publicity is a very important link, which can enhance the atmosphere of 5S activities. During the development of 5S, enterprises can make extensive publicity through bulletin boards, electronic billboards and local area networks. All departments should also actively formulate 5S publicity plans, carry out publicity activities, and encourage employees to actively participate. Through the publicity of 5S knowledge, employees can be exposed to the concept of 5S, which plays a subtle role; The publicity of 5S work progress can let employees know about the implementation and promote the continuous development of the work; Timely publicizing the advanced experience and deeds of implementing 5S can make everyone learn from each other and promote the perfection and development of * * *.

Pay attention to methods and implement them.

1. Make a plan, and the responsibility lies with people.

The implementation of 5S can't be an armchair strategist, it must be implemented. On the basis of the master plan, enterprises should make detailed and specific development plans every month, and adjust the plans in time according to the progress, so that the plans can really play the role of guidance and supervision. It is suggested that the "5S" special plan should be implemented in each department at the beginning of each month, and each department should formulate its own specific implementation plan according to its own characteristics, and then implement the plan to each employee, that is, to the specific responsible person in each job and area, and implement the daily inspection and weekly inspection system. Only in this way can the implementation of 5S be implemented.

2. Correctly handle the relationship between "giving up" and "getting"

There are gains and losses in everything. In order to achieve results in 5S management, it is necessary to properly handle the relationship between "giving up" and "gaining".

Processing in (1) space. The first job of 5S management is "sorting". "Cleaning up" means cleaning things up, clearly judging whether they should be or not, and resolutely abandoning them. After cleaning up useless items, we can see the finishing effects of increasing space, reducing inventory, reducing search time, reducing failures and improving production efficiency.

(2) Time processing. In enterprises, often due to heavy tasks and tight time, employees' tools are misplaced and articles are jumbled. In this way, not only a lot of time is wasted looking around anxiously, but sometimes mistakes are made in busy work, resulting in unexpected losses. The "rectification" work is to manage the necessary items according to their use, usage and frequency of use, define the quantity, put them in order, and mark them well for easy access. It takes some time, but the time to find what you need is reduced to zero.

(3) Image processing. External image can generally reflect internal strength. The external image of an enterprise is the basic project to improve morale, reduce waste, improve production efficiency and reduce defective products. Therefore, it is necessary to spend a certain amount of manpower and material resources to change the production environment and working environment of an enterprise in order to improve its image.

(4) Welfare benefits. Pursuing profit maximization and realizing social benefits are the eternal goals of enterprises. It is undeniable that the benefits brought by management activities are not as obvious as those brought by production activities, and it is difficult to get immediate results. Therefore, in 5S management activities, some people only see the manpower, material resources and financial resources invested, but they can't see the benefits brought by 5S management. In fact, the implementation of 5S management reduces the time of searching and handling, reduces the inventory cost, reduces the online stay of semi-finished products, reduces the bad consumption, ensures the prevention cost of scientific research and production safety, enables enterprises to establish safety awareness, eliminate all kinds of hidden dangers, prevent accidents, enhance corporate image and improve product quality, and the benefits obtained will be immeasurable. Therefore, in 5S management, the accounts of input and output should be comprehensive and long-term.

3. Standardization and persistence

The ultimate goal of 5S management is "literacy". To achieve this goal, on the one hand, we should institutionalize and standardize "sorting, rectifying and cleaning up", on the other hand, we should strive to make all employees form good habits of obeying rules and procedures and have the "literacy" of adhering to the implementation system for a long time. For the latter, it should be the focus of 5S management. Enterprises should bring 5S management into system management and be prepared for a protracted war.

4. Using visual management to improve efficiency

On-site visual management is a management method that uses charts, billboards and colors to turn the problems, anomalies, waste, quality, cost, delivery date, safety and related production activities in the work site into a clear state, so as to take countermeasures quickly and simply and prevent mistakes from happening again.

In 5S management activities, visual management plays a very important role in improving and maintaining site safety, such as the identification of road signs, passage lines, areas and product states, and the extensive use of safety colors and safety signs, which can enable people to quickly judge whether the site environment is safe with high accuracy. Among them, the role of kanban management is unique, which reflects the management level of a department, such as team management kanban, quality kanban, plan management kanban, personnel walking board and so on. It not only shows the management content, publicizes the department, but also promotes the department management.

5. Model first, focusing on effect

In the initial stage of implementing 5S management, it is very important to establish 5S demonstration area according to the characteristics of enterprises. Because the development of 5S must be combined with the actual situation of the unit, regardless of the actual situation of the unit, copying is not desirable. Enterprises can choose some typical areas or departments as demonstration areas according to their own characteristics to demonstrate and promote the comprehensive promotion of 5S.

6. Start with the details and lay a solid foundation

Details determine success or failure. 5S management is a real sorting, rectifying, sweeping and cleaning work, which needs to start from the details. From the perspective of the enterprise as a whole, in the 5S management, we should carefully arrange the 5S implementation work at each site to ensure that no blind spots are left. For every department or workshop and other grass-roots units, it is more important and necessary to pay attention to details. For example, various signs, forms and signs should be carefully designed, and the responsibility system for public areas such as corridors and conference rooms should be clearly and conscientiously implemented.

7. Inspection and supervision, continuous improvement

Inspection and supervision can play an important role in 5S management promotion activities. Although this will increase the pressure on employees, it will also make employees know the direction of action more quickly and directly, know the existing shortcomings and promote improvement. Enterprises can effectively promote the improvement of on-site management by inviting experts to conduct on-site inspection and guidance, or they can set up 5S inspection teams to conduct inspection and supervision at different stages in the process of 5S implementation to ensure that the implementation of 5S management meets the requirements and is completed on time.

In addition, in order to avoid being superficial and formal, enterprises should focus on the development of scientific research and production, practicality and convenience for work, rather than just considering the warm atmosphere and superficial remarks. At the same time, the implementation of 5S management should emphasize the sense of innovation. Different industries, organizations and departments have different nature of work and different contents, so they cannot be completely copied. Only by innovating 5S management according to the working characteristics of the enterprise can the implementation of 5S not be divorced from reality and really play a role in improving the basic management level of the organization. Enterprises should constantly push 5S management to a new level, study and solve new problems, and especially have innovative working methods and ideas.
