Is the 5S in the factory that important?

I am a manufacturer, and I agree with you very much. 5S is not necessary, and it doesn't matter whether you do it or not. However, you should understand the principle of 5S. Production is first of all output, capacity and production efficiency. However, if production tools are misplaced, it will inevitably affect production efficiency. If your production efficiency is very low, your first priority is to increase production capacity, and pay attention to the fact that production capacity is not efficiency. Only when your production capacity is fully utilized, then the production cost will be reduced through the concept of 5S, and the production efficiency will be improved by means of energy saving and consumption reduction under the condition of constant production capacity. It's no use talking about 5S.
