5S Scorecard
5S Scorecard
A 5S score is one way to measure a company's lean manufacturing processes. Like all lean manufacturing tools, a 5S score indicates how well the company is allocating its resources.
In fillilng out the form you write a score from 0 to 5 beside each question. The lower the score on a question, the worse the company is doing in that particular area. For example, if the company doesn't use any markings on shelves to indicate where items go, you could give it a 0 score on that question.
Add up the scores to determine an overall 5S score. Some companies will use this number as their final 5S score. Divide the overall 5S score by the number of questions. For example, if your company has an overall score of 93, you would divide 93 by 25 and get 3.72 on a scale of 5.0.
