5S is a well-known methodology used by organizations for the purpose of work space tidiness, efficiency and effectiveness. Seiri, Seiton, Seiso, Seiketsu and Shitsuke, the five Japanese words which start with letter "S" makes up the concept of 5S, which means identifying and storing items used for daily work, maintaining the area and items, and sustaining the order.

The implementation of 5S in organizations will improve not only the efficiency but also brings positive impact on workers' safety, thus indirectly increasing their motivation.

DQS believes that organizations taking the initiative of 5S implementation needs an eye from an independent 3rd party to evaluate on how well is 5S implemented and areas for potential further improvement, therefore, we have developed the DQS-5S Scheme. Through our 5S competent auditors, we assess the organization implementing 5S based on DQS methodology consisting of a scoring system and an analysis of the performance of each of the 5 sections, and from there we rate your overall implementation on the 5S culture.

Following the launch of the DQS-5S Scheme, we are proud to announce our very first client who received the DQS-5S recognition, Malaysian Environment Cleaning Science Sdn. Bhd. (MECSc). The company had achieved the Gold status from the assessment conducted and DQS congratulates them on this achievement.
