style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> Pon.Bike<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, the world's largest premium bicycle manufacturer. Within Pon.Bike we have already had the opportunity to guide and support several improvement programs on behalf of 5S-Company. Such as: workplace organization (5S), safety, continuous improvement, TWI and process optimization. All steps towards a learning organisation. This approach delivered great results at Gazelle (<a href=\"https:\/\/5scompany.com\/en\/articles-4\/a-unique-insight-into-the-5s-rollout-and-lean-improvement-processes-within-royal-gazelle\/\">5S white paper Lean journey Gazelle<\/a>) and even the successful establishment of a completely new factory of Pon.Bike in Lithuania (<a href=\"https:\/\/5scompany.com\/en\/5s-projects-3\/lean-journey-in-new-factory-at-pon-bike-lithuania-2\/\">Lean journey new Pon.Bike factory in Lithuania<\/a>).<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Floris Lievestro, operations project manager at Pon.Bike, was recruited to guide this process. Previously, he had been closely involved in successful 5S implementations, including at Gazelle in Dieren and at the factory in Lithuania. \"From those experiences we knew: this works. So we wanted to do the same at Urban Arrow,\" Floris says.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">At Urban Arrow, a pioneering mentality prevailed in the early years. A small, close-knit group of employees worked passionately on innovative bicycles, with creativity and speed at the core. But as the company grew, there was a need for more structure and professionalism in the operation.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Operations director<\/span> <span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Daan Scheltes has been involved with Urban Arrow from the beginning and has witnessed its growth up close. Nowadays, his responsibility lies mainly in securing and following up improvement programs. He looks back: \"The consequences of that growth became increasingly visible: valuable time was lost as employees searched for parts and many departments had developed their own way of working. It was time to bring structure.\"<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The planned renovation of the factory offered the perfect starting point for this. Not only to redesign the hall, but also to future-proof the way of working, fully in line with the 5S working method that is successfully rolling out within Pon.Bike worldwide.<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><br \/><\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><br \/><\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\"5S is the basis for working in a structured way.\" <\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">- Floris Lievestro<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-e5b8cdb elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"e5b8cdb\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">The approach to 5S implementation at Urban Arrow<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-c97760b elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"c97760b\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The conversion took place in December 2024 and January 2025. Since production was relatively low during this period, this was the right time to start. \"We formed a core team of eight employees,\" says Floris. Consultant and co-owner of 5S-Company, Patrick Kalshoven, guided the team: in the morning they received theory, in the afternoon they immediately put it into practice. Before the renovation, all materials were sorted and cleaned up so that the new environment could start clean. After the remodeling, we could immediately proceed with the next steps of 5S.<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-7f63586 elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"7f63586\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">How Urban Arrow creates support for 5S<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-5a5234b elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"5a5234b\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">As with any change, there was skepticism in the beginning. Within several departments there was initially the question of whether 5S would add value, or just be seen as additional rules.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Daan explains, \"Thanks to Patrick's approach, the focus quickly shifted from rules to personal benefits. Less searching, more peace and overview: when employees experienced this for themselves, the resistance gradually disappeared. 5S-Company did not stand on the sidelines with a checklist, but put on overalls and worked with them on the floor. Because of this, it doesn't feel like control, but rather coaching. It was precisely this critical outside view, but in an equal way, that made the difference.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">To increase support, we took supervisors to Animals and Lithuania during implementation. There they saw for themselves how 5S was applied. It's better to take someone with background information than to start blank. It gave confidence to see with their own eyes how it worked there. They discovered that 5S is not a temporary method, but a structural way of working that delivers results.\"<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-efb6ae5 elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"efb6ae5\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">The Role of 5S-Company<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-5e57c8d elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"5e57c8d\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Floris Lievestro fulfilled a double role: on the one hand as internal supervisor of the project, and on the other hand as coach who enthusiastically brought people along. \"I am not someone who omnisciently tells how things should be done; I use my expertise to make it clear how effective 5S can be in practice.\" Patrick from 5S-Company brought the crucial outside perspective to this. \"When I say, 'At Gazelle it works like this,' people say, 'Yeah, but we're not Gazelle.' Patrick can say, 'I also did this in a steel mill with eight people.' Look, here are the before and after pictures.'

Due to these changes in structure we realize 25 to 50% more production than in the old situation.<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> \"That's not because people are running harder, but because we are organizing smarter and working more efficiently,\" Daan said.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">According to Daan, the effect goes beyond just more output: \"The new way of working also gives much more flexibility. Where we were previously stuck with a tight schedule, we can now easily shift between Family and B2B bikes, because everything is clearly arranged. In addition, we now work with the whole team in one hall instead of two. Where once there was literally a wall, there is now more contact, collaboration and even shared music. Day starts and weekly meetings reinforce that.\"<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Floris adds: \"I have now done this implementation process twice before, so I knew what it could deliver. At Urban Arrow it turned out the way we envisioned: more efficiency, more structure and a more relaxed environment. You immediately notice that people can work more pleasantly as a result, and that's ultimately what you do it for.\"<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">One of the Urban Arrow founders, who stepped down a year earlier, saw the difference immediately: \"Compliments, what a huge improvement over a year ago.\"<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-a0992f2 elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"a0992f2\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">From 5S implementation to continuous improvement at Urban Arrow<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-8af3bbb elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"8af3bbb\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">At 5S-Company, we believe that cleaning up alone is not enough. The real difference only occurs when improvements are secured and become part of the daily way of working. That's why at Urban Arrow we have been committed to continuous improvement (Kaizen) from the beginning. We introduced day starts, weekly improvement meetings and a <a href=\"https:\/\/5scompany.com\/en\/5s-tools-4\/5s-application-4\/\">5S<\/a>\/<a href=\"https:\/\/5scompany.com\/en\/5s-tools-4\/safety-application-2\/\">Safety<\/a>-app where employees can post their reports and ideas directly.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\"Thanks to this structure, 5S is not a one-time action but a culture. The <a href=\"https:\/\/5scompany.com\/en\/5s-tools-4\/5s-application-4\/\">5S app<\/a> combined with <a href=\"https:\/\/cicloudpro.com\/nl\/\">CiCloudPro<\/a> plays a key role in this. Anyone can now report on 5S or safety via QR codes in the hall. Small improvements are visible and picked up quickly. Employees notice that their contribution makes an immediate difference and that increases involvement. Slowly a culture of continuous improvement emerged. It became visible when a colleague said, \"I am now proud of my workplace and would like to show this to friends and family. That was a pretty remarkable turning point,\" says Daan.<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-77ff894 elementor-widget elementor-widget-gallery\" data-id=\"77ff894\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-settings=\"{&quot;lazyload&quot;:&quot;yes&quot;,&quot;gallery_layout&quot;:&quot;grid&quot;,&quot;columns&quot;:4,&quot;columns_tablet&quot;:2,&quot;columns_mobile&quot;:1,&quot;gap&quot;:{&quot;unit&quot;:&quot;px&quot;,&quot;size&quot;:10,&quot;sizes&quot;:[]},&quot;gap_tablet&quot;:{&quot;unit&quot;:&quot;px&quot;,&quot;size&quot;:10,&quot;sizes&quot;:[]},&quot;gap_mobile&quot;:{&quot;unit&quot;:&quot;px&quot;,&quot;size&quot;:10,&quot;sizes&quot;:[]},&quot;aspect_ratio&quot;:&quot;3:2&quot;,&quot;overlay_background&quot;:&quot;yes&quot;,&quot;content_hover_animation&quot;:&quot;fade-in&quot;}\" data-widget_type=\"gallery.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-gallery__container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"e-gallery-item elementor-gallery-item elementor-animated-content\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"e-gallery-image elementor-gallery-item__image\" data-thumbnail=\"https:\/\/5scompany.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/afb-1-300x225.jpeg\" data-width=\"300\" data-height=\"225\" aria-label=\"After 5S rollout Urban Arrow\" role=\"img\" ><\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-gallery-item__overlay\"><\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"e-gallery-item elementor-gallery-item elementor-animated-content\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"e-gallery-image elementor-gallery-item__image\" data-thumbnail=\"https:\/\/5scompany.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/Afb-3-300x225.jpeg\" data-width=\"300\" data-height=\"225\" aria-label=\"5S arranging Urban Arrow\" role=\"img\" ><\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-gallery-item__overlay\"><\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"e-gallery-item elementor-gallery-item elementor-animated-content\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"e-gallery-image elementor-gallery-item__image\" data-thumbnail=\"https:\/\/5scompany.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/Afb-4-300x225.jpeg\" data-width=\"300\" data-height=\"225\" aria-label=\"5S impression Urban Arrow\" role=\"img\" ><\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-gallery-item__overlay\"><\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"e-gallery-item elementor-gallery-item elementor-animated-content\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"e-gallery-image elementor-gallery-item__image\" data-thumbnail=\"https:\/\/5scompany.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/Afb-7-300x225.jpeg\" data-width=\"300\" data-height=\"225\" aria-label=\"5S at Urban Arrow\" role=\"img\" ><\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-gallery-item__overlay\"><\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-0d8ceeb elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"0d8ceeb\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">The future of 5S at Urban Arrow<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-f6c5551 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"f6c5551\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">For Urban Arrow, the coming period revolves around two words: sustain and grow. Because 5S is not a project with a checkmark at the end, but a way of working that takes shape every day.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">According to Daan, this happens very concretely: <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\"We complete several areas of improvement every week, but also add new ones all the time. That way we keep moving forward, one step at a time. Later this year there will be another audit with Patrick. Then we will set goals toward 2026 and see where we stand. That way progress remains alive and measurable.\"<\/span><\/i><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The cooperation within Pon.Bike provides additional momentum in this regard. Factories like Gazelle and Pon.Bike Lithuania have already completed their own 5S trajectory, Urban Arrow joined a little later. <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\"That makes us like-minded,\"<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> explains Daan. <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\"We are taking the same steps, each at our own pace. That opens the door to share knowledge and inspire each other.\"<\/span><\/i><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">And then there is something that is perhaps most valuable: pride. Employees no longer feel like implementers, but co-thinkers. Floris smiles: <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\"5S has brought us peace and structure, but also fun.
