The 5S methodology is a workplace organization system originating from Japan, focusing on efficiency and safety. Each "S" represents a step: 1. Sort (Seiri) Eliminate unnecessary items from the workspace to reduce clutter and create more usable space. 2. Set in Order (Seiton) Organize tools and materials logically, ensuring everything has a designated place for easy access. 3. Shine (Seiso) Clean the workplace regularly to maintain hygiene, identify issues, and create a positive work environment. 4. Standardize (Seiketsu) Establish consistent procedures and standards to maintain organization and cleanliness. 5. Sustain (Shitsuke) Cultivate discipline to continuously follow and improve the 5S practices over time. This approach is widely used in lean management and manufacturing to boost productivity, safety, and quality. #safety #staytuned #industry #process_safety

Are you already familiar with LEAN? Lean is a methodology focused on maximizing efficiency by eliminating waste and continuously improving processes. It aims to deliver more value to customers with fewer resources while involving employees in identifying and implementing improvements. At Bromma, we've embraced Lean methodology to continuously improve our factory operations. In Ipoh, Malaysia, we've been reducing waste, streamlining processes, and empowering employees to contribute their ideas for improvement through the methodology since 2019. During these years, we've cut lead times, boosted productivity, and enhanced workplace safety and ergonomics. For us, Lean is not just about tools, but fostering a culture of continuous improvement, innovation, and teamwork to bring more value to our customers. What kind of experiences do you have with Lean methodology? #Bromma #LeanManufacturing #Efficiency #ContinuousImprovement #TraditionOfInnovation #ManufacturingExcellence

What do you see wrong in this place? Yes, you guessed it right. It is missing 5S! 5S, a workplace organization method originating in Japan, is a key element of the Lean manufacturing philosophy. This system enhances efficiency, safety, and morale by systematically organizing the workplace and eliminating waste. The five S's include: 1. Seiri (Sort): Remove unnecessary items to keep only what is essential for operations. 2. Seiton (Set in order): Arrange necessary items for easy accessibility and labeling. 3. Seiso (Shine): Regularly clean the workspace and equipment for a safe environment. 4. Seiketsu (Standardize): Establish standards and procedures for consistency. 5. Shitsuke (Sustain): Maintain standards through discipline and regular audits. Implementing 5S drives productivity, waste reduction, safety enhancement, and an organized work environment. Let's embrace these principles for a more efficient workplace! #5S #Leanmanagement

Gemba (also written as genba) is a Japanese word meaning "the actual place." In lean practices, the gemba refers to "the place where value is created, the term "going to the gemba" is described by the Japanese term "genchi gembutsu". A popular approach in companies who implement lean principles is called "Gemba Walks," which denote the action of going to see ("go and see") the actual process, understand the work, ask questions, and learning from those who do the work (showing respect to them). It is an opportunity for management and support staff to break away from their day-to-day tasks to walk the floor of their workplace to identify wasteful activities. The objective is to understand the value stream and its problems, rather than review results or make superficial comments from office, plant or conference room. It is good to witness and also privileged to be apart of the Gemba team in working with the team especially EHS in making the plant a safer place. I was elected to be part of this weeks, Leaders GEMBA together with EHS lead and UNION representative. Many findings were raised and discussion were done with the team. #KCLife #EngineerLife #GEMBAWalk #LearnAndGrow #GoodInput
