Purpose of Seminar:

together to prevent equipment problems and reduce expenditures. By giving ownership and

are reduced. 5S provides a systematic approach to setting standards and visual guides
for preventing breakdowns and making your equipment run smoothly.
By the end of this seminar, students will be able to go back to their facility and
immediately apply what they learned to help keep their equipment up an running. Training
like this never costs – it pays!
