How do you digitize 5S audits and sustain the gains?
The short answer
Digitize 5S audits with a mobile checklist that captures scores and photo evidence, auto-assigns follow-ups with owners and due dates, and schedules recurring audits. The gains stick because of the follow-up loop and trend tracking — scores over time by area, with actions closed before the next audit.
The digital 5S loop
- Audit on mobile. Score each S with photos, right at the workstation.
- Auto-assign actions. Gaps become tasks with owners and due dates.
- Close the loop. Track actions to completion before the next audit.
- Trend by area. Watch scores over time to see who’s sustaining and who’s slipping.
Why most 5S programs fade — and how to sustain
5S usually fails not at the audit but at follow-through. Digitizing makes the follow-up visible and accountable, and recurring audits plus trend charts keep it from decaying. Praxie runs the full loop — audit, action, trend — provable in a free micro-pilot.
