5S Game - A Lean Simulation
The revised 5S game allows you to learn by experience first hand the benefits 5S can provide.
The simulation comes as a pdf presentation complete with detailed instructions as foot notes accompanying every slide. We have also added the popular printable trainers guide.
The purpose of the game is to prove the benefits of implementing 5S in your organization
By playing several rounds (assembling robots from blocks, before and after implementing Sorting and then Straightening) we will demonstrate how we can increase the throughput while using the same number of people and how the work is so much easier and better ergonomically.
Below is a representative sample of the slides in the presentation.
Due to them being a gif image their quality is far lower than the real presentation slides.

The game is for 6 players plus the time keeper / data collection recorder.
You will need enough blocks to build about 50 robots, for every 6 players. See slide 12 for individual robot parts list.
At the end of the third round, opportunities for Standardization will be discussed, to further improve the operations. Best practices will be brainstormed to Sustain the 5S.
The object of our game is the new creation of the Space Robotics Corporation, the Robot.
Briefly, the agenda is as follows:
- 5S Basics
- Introduction of the 5S game
- Play Round 1
- Apply the 1st 5S technique: Sorting
- Play Round 2
- Apply the 2nd 5S technique: Straightening
- Play Round 3
- Discussions based on Results (Brainstorm Opportunities for Standardize and Sustain)
The assembly instructions for each station (6 in total) can be printed from the presentation and they are ready to be used.
