This 5S housekeeping audit template is designed for manufacturing cells and supports continuous improvement on the shop floor. It guides teams through the five pillars—Sort, Set in Order, Shine, Standardize, and Sustain—covering practical checks such as clean and organized SPC desks, tidy mold technician benches, proper WIP and finished goods placement, clear labeling for tools and storage, and defined locations for brooms and cleaning gear. It includes floor cleanliness, mold cleaning cart completeness, and use of 5S boards with prior audit results posted. The audit also prompts quick interviews to confirm 5S discussions and active projects, with an option to send the report to the cell leader.
