28. My own workplace Standardise

29. How do we carryout a 5’s activity Step Five Sustain, the most difficult and often the hardest part of 5’s Ensure everyone works to the new system and record changes that are made with improvements. To help, measure firstly on a weekly bases and then monthly basis the desired against the actual using your standard.
