Read here the customer experience of Pon Power, after the 5S process.
Customer experience Pon Power with 5S Company
After we followed the 5S program our productivity increased by more than 30% and the workplace became safer (the number of unsafe situations and unsafe conditions dropped to almost zero). That really showed what we could do when we worked in a well-organized, efficient and safe environment. Investing in this 5S program has been great, it has made a big difference for us.
It has been a relatively small investment with a very short payback period.
Working with 5S Company was very surprising and educational, overall a great and clean warehouse.
The program gave me a lot of new motivation and energy, and we had a lot of fun in the process.
We changed focus and processes and introduced daily stand-up meetings in the morning. That freed up time and resources that we can now use to handle even more goods and at the same time develop the department even further.
It was also nice to see the interest and curiosity of colleagues who work in other departments…think; “We should actually do the same in our department”.
