Basically Office TPM starts with 5S :
1S : Seiri : Sort Out
In IS activity, all unwanted should be disposed to the Red tag zone(area) with Red tag.
2S : Seiton : Systematic arrangement.
In 2S activity, The things which are wanted, required should be kept in specified location , systematic in order, easy to access & with identification.
3S : Seiso : Shine
In 3S activity, you should clean the workplace & the things which are required.
4S : Siketsu :Standardization :
In 4S activity, what you have done in 1S,2S,3S should be sustained, for that standard is to be made.
5S : Sitsuke : Self Discipline
In 4S activity, Standard that you have made in 4S should be followed with descipline. If Descipline not followed , sustainance impossible.
So, 4S & 5S is only for sustenance of 1S, 2S & 3S.
After doing 1S,2S & 3S in Office areas, immediately standards for the cleaning, Inspection of office area should be made & that standard should be followed with descipline.
