　　With the rapid development of economic construction, domestic manufacturing enterprises are faced with a huge change in management. At this time, the enterprise than ever more urgent to seek a kind of advanced production management mode, hope it can make the enterprise to reduce the cost and increase the efficiency, better meet customer demand, overcome crisis of survival, in line with world class enterprise operation level.

　　So, more and more companies try to apply origin in Toyota's lean production gradually into their own production management, expectations can improve enterprise management level, make the operating system more efficient and standardized, in the turbulent market competition remain invincible. But many enterprises in implement the lean production process, for lean production tools use there is a deviation in their understanding and proper management habits hinder, make the essence of lean production can not for the management master, resulting in enterprises in import and the transformation process deviation, greatly influences the enterprise change direction and staff confidence.

　　So, what are the tools of lean manufacturing? Is there an inevitable connection between the tools? Is the use of lean manufacturing tools to be able to achieve the purpose of lean production?

　　5S management is the cornerstone of

　　5S (sorting, sorting, cleaning, cleaning, quality) as the cornerstone of TPS (TOYOTA production system) management system, is being a lot of enterprise learning and application. But in the previous research, it was found that many enterprises 5S work is not successful or not completely. Often is the implementation of the initial fanfare, confident; after the implementation of a period of time, noiselessly gradually smaller, no response. Finally disappeared, dormant. Investigate its reason, there are several factors that cause 5S to implement such an embarrassing result.

　　Since the training is not in place, employees do not understand the true meaning of the work of 5S and efficacy. Will 5S simple understanding for cleaning, ignoring its "eight effect", which is the most important, with the result that employees implementation process deviate from the targets and management of their own or objective reasons can not be timely corrective and teach, eventually make employees lose confidence, participate actively reduced.

　　Top management attention is not enough, can not give enough support on the resources. Often think 5S management trivial, scattered, although the establishment of the organization, but because of objective reasons can not be normalized attention, only occasionally intervene cannot be as the first enterprise to promote the work. Often this in the past, causing the entire team down, can not effectively track the implementation.

　　Lack of incentive mechanism, can not motivate employees to participate in the enthusiasm. 5S work is the lack of standardized management, not included in the performance evaluation project, just random evaluation, in the daily work can not get due attention, only in the appropriate inspection period was remembered.

　　In view of the above state, to promote lean production management, must make 5S management foundation; want to do a good job in 5S management, we must first to employees implementation effective education and training. Allow employees to understand the true role and efficacy of 5S, multi frequency, multi direction of the relevant knowledge of training and teaching. Can draw lessons from the practice of companies from Japan and South Korea, using classes in two sessions and regular meeting time related knowledge training, regular evaluation, strengthening the consciousness, behavior norms, the 5S concept and role of deeply rooted in the hearts of the staff, in order to get employees to respond positively.

　　For senior managers, 5S management should be placed at a certain height of enterprise management, to give sufficient resources to support. Increase attention, led the organization to actively participate in the promotion of cognition, in the appropriate meeting of the work as a topic to discuss, in order to promote the work of 5S can continue to advance, and to continue to improve.

　　5S management must be set to implement the standard, which is conducive to work to promote the verification and consolidation. In the implementation of the standard set up the corresponding incentive evaluation mechanism should be established, this mechanism must be combined with performance management, so as to stimulate the enthusiasm of the participants, so that the work of 5S normalization.
