5S WORKSHOP DESIGN AND INSTALLATION
.avif)
Organised, safe, effective workshops
We design, install and manage workshops for teams of engineers, focused on traceability, ease of auditing and tool availability.
These traceability-led workshops are then managed and restocked by our dedicated inhouse team, allowing procurement teams to achieve complete transparency over tool usage and consumable replenishment.
Often we provide stores management services alongside our workshop solutions, for a complete end-to-end service for engineering teams of all sizes.

The 5S methodology
Our 5S workshops are based on a Japanese workplace organisation method. The name refers to five Japanese S words, each contributing to a workspace that is highly functional and ordered.
1 — Seiri | sort
Remove all unnecessary items from the workspace
2 — Seiton | Set in order
Put everything into its proper place
.avif)
3 — Seiso | Shine
Keep the workplace clean and tidy
4 — Seiketsu | Standardise
Establish consistent work practices and rationalise resources and spaces

5 — Shitsuke | Sustain
Support and spread this mindset throughout your organisation
Benefits of 5S workshops
Improve time and cost-effectiveness
A proper organisation and transport system for your tools will ensure you have everything you need, where you need it, for both planned and reactive work.
Enhanced quality and productivity
A purpose-built workshop contains precisely the tools your team needs, and not generic equipment. Having the right tools improves reliability and performance.
Fewer work accidents
Arranging all necessary items for ease of access and removing tools and consumables that are not required, will minimise misuse and reduce hazards.
Greater efficiency
Reducing the number of defects and errors helps avoid delays, optimises processes and improves overall efficiency.

Case Study | A traceability-led 5S workshop for a 24-man engineering team
Customer: Packaging facility for major UK retailer
Challenge: This large engineering team needed quick access to the right tools and consumables in the event of a breakdown and their procurement team needed total visibility of spend
Solution: We installed a bespoke-designed workshop over four days, including 24 roll cabs and individual toolkits, two secure shadow boards, a charging cabinet for tablets and power tool batteries and storage racking for 5,000 parts. The installation was quickly followed by the arrival of a comprehensive package of consumables and spares that are now managed by ABCO weekly.
