5S Board Example One
CHOOSE WHAT TO SHOW ON YOUR BOARD

TRACK PROGRESS IN AN ENGAGING WAY
A dry wipe 5S metric can be split into monthly tracking (see above) or daily tracking with 1-31 segments. In addition, works for single, double or triple shift patterns. Above all, choose the method that works for you. in addition, add your own visual key.
5S Board Example Two
SHOW RELEVANT INFORMATION
In short, show exactly what you need on your 5S board. This example includes an Improvements section. This is in addition to visual standards, single shift metric tracking and status indicator dials.
CUSTOM SIZE 5S BOARDS
This 5S board is sized to exactly accommodate the information needed. In addition, magnetic document holders can be A4/A3/US tabloid/US letter size, or custom made to your specific dimensions.
FOSTER A CULTURE OF TEAM ENGAGEMENT
Increase engagement with your 5S strategy by including status of improvements suggestions. In addition, include a status indicator, such as these status meters. Above all, drive progress.
5S Board Example Three
SHOW CLEARLY YOUR 5S OBJECTIVES
So, describe each ‘S’ so targets are clear and visual. Choose to add status indicator meters for each metric to chart progress. Add document holders to keep audit and visual standards information safe and secure.
STATUS INDICATOR METERS PROVIDE A VISUAL SNAPSHOT
Increase engagement with your 5S objectives by adding status indicators to your 5S board. For example, our status indicator meters. Most importantly, these provide instant visual reference for the status of each target S. As a result, this drives a seamless culture that supports Continuous Improvement and best practice strategies.
ADD AN IMPROVEMENTS/ACTIONS SECTION
So include an area of the board to share improvements, actions or suggestions. Furthermore, to assign responsibility for who is taking action on each point of improvement. Consequently, drive your 5S strategy forward.
5S Board Example Four
CHOOSE 5S SUSTAINMENT
In short, go deeper with your 5S strategies and explore a 5S sustainment objective. This example includes area plan, area ownership information and a section for each area’s status, including individual status indicator sliders.
ADD A 5S TRENDS CHART
So, chart progress over time and in real time. For this example, the board showcases different areas for the 5S objectives. Also, each area includes a dry wipe/eraze tracking chart for each day and the overall progress is shown with a red green status slider.
MEET SPECIFIC TARGETS
This 5S sustainment visual management board includes status indicators for specific targets and action points. As a result, it is absolutely clear what the target is and what actions need to be taken to achieve it.
5S Board Example Five
5S WITH OTHER DAILY MANAGEMENT PROCESSES
This board also combines 5S tracking with other metrics, such as Quality and Safety. Also, as well as dry wipe (dry eraze) updates, combine magnetic labels for visual status.
CHOOSE YOUR SHIFT PATTERNS AND STATUS UPDATES
So, this example shows a triple shift pattern metric tracking option. Or, alternatively, choose a double shift pattern that would suit a day and evening shift pattern.
DRY WIPE DAILY TRACKING
Furthermore, updating daily status for each shift is done by dry wipe (or dry eraze) pen. Provides an instant visual snapshot of your 5S progress. Likewise, enables seamless status updates between each shift team.
