5S in Aviation Maintenance

摘要

5S is a cornerstone element of Lean.It gets its name from five Japanese words; seiri (sort), seiton (set in place), seison (shine), seiketsu (standardize), and shitsuke (sustain). 5S can be applied almost anywhere in the organization. Administration, hangar, back shops, stockrooms, production booths; all can benefit from a dose of 5S. Assuming we want to get started, where do we start? Well, first, we need a plan and every plan begins with a goal.
