Seiri: Sort (Clean Up)
• Sort through everything in each work area to identify items you need and those you don't.
• Keep only those items that you will use and are necessary.
• Remove unnecessary items and keep them in the Red Tag area.
• Don't keep items just because you think you may use them someday.
Poster 3: 5SPos000215
Seiton: Set In Order (Organize)
• Organize and arrange everything (after identifying and labeling each item) in a work area in a manner that makes retrieval and return of the items easy, efficient and effective.
• Follow the simple rule: A place for everything and everything in its place.
Poster 4: 5SPos000216
Seiso: Sweep (Regular Cleaning)
• Once you have sorted, organized, arranged and identified all the items in each individual work area and ultimately your entire facility, you need to ensure that you keep it that way.
• This would require regular cleaning.
Poster 5: 5SPos000217
Seiketsu: Standardize (Simplify)
• Simplify each task and activity so that it can be executed efficiently and effectively
• Standardization will increase efficiency and deliver consistent quality.
Poster 6: 5SPos000218
Shitsuke: Sustain
• Continuous training
• Maintaining the standards
• Evaluate and monitor the results of implementing Five S program in your organization.

Reasons for failure of Six Sigma • Using it as a tool without improving the culture of the organization • Thinking of it as a temporary activity rather than a perpetual method of operating the business • Not understanding the significance and power of data and statistics for analytical insight • Lack of commensurate authority • Ignoring the results of the statistical analysis • Not linking compensation to six sigma performance.

Basis of 6 Sigma The objective of Six Sigma is to achieve "Zero defects." If we can measure the number of "defects" in a process and systematically figure out how to eliminate them, we will get as close to "zero defects" as possible. To achieve Six Sigma, a process must not produce more than 3.4 defects per million opportunities. In other words, all your key processes must be nearly flawless.
Poster 5: 6σPos000226
Focus of Six Sigma • Eliminating defects • Understanding the expectations of the customer • Eliminating the root cause of customer dissatisfaction.
Poster 6: 6σPos000228
What is 6 Sigma? It is a data-driven methodology that focuses on process improvement and variation reduction for all activities and processes to enable the organization to deliver almost perfect products and services.
