I checked online and got a concept as follows. 7S management 5S originated in Japan. It refers to the effective management of production factors such as personnel, machines, materials, methods, and information at the production site. This is a unique management method of Japanese companies. Because sorting (Seiri), rectifying (Seiton), cleaning (Seiso), cleaning (seiketsu), literacy (Shits) (uke) is a Japanese loanword. In Roman spelling, the first letter is S, so the Japanese call it 5S. In recent years, as people's understanding of this activity continues to deepen, some people have added "Safety (Safety), Speed (Speed), Save (Save)" and other contents, which are called 6S, 7S, and 8S respectively. The 7S (sorting, rectifying, sweeping, cleaning, literacy, safety, and saving) management method ensures the company's elegant production and office environment, good working order, and strict work discipline. It is also the basic requirement to improve work efficiency, produce high-quality, precise products, reduce waste, and save material and time costs. The so-called 7S of the 7S on-site management system is "Seiri", "Seiton", "Seiso", "Seikeetsu", "Shitsuke", "Safety" and "Saving". The eight major functions of 7S are: 1. Improve and enhance corporate image. 2. Improve production efficiency. 3. Improve the parts turnover rate in the warehouse. 4 Reduce failures and ensure quality. 5. Ensure the safe production of enterprises. 6 Reduce production costs. 7. Improve the mental outlook of employees and make the organization more dynamic. 8. Shorten the operation cycle and ensure delivery time. The six major benefits of 7S are: 1. Zero losses; 2. Zero defects; 3. Zero waste; 4. Zero failures; 5. Zero accidents; 6. Zero complaints.
