 What is 5S?

The 5S is a mantra of sorts designed to help build a quality work

environment, both physically and mentally. The 5S condition of a
work area is critical to the morale of employees and the basis of
customers’ first impressions. Management’s attitude regarding
employees is reflected in the 5S condition of the work area.

 The Problem

Eric has successfully built a civil engineering firm with a team of 5

that largely operates virtually. As such, Eric mostly works from a
home satellite office.
Lately, he’s been at the end of his rope - no matter how hard
he tried he seemed to be losing traction on some important
projects.
With a desk that did not stay clutter-free for longer than a
day, his growing concern of losing clients due to habitually missed
project deadlines led him to give us a call.
