Re: Lean Projects for my home - Teaching my family the principals of 5s
I'm thinking that a reduction of inventory in the play room is going to be against the objectives of the organization (more toys = happier). Try telling your kids they have to reduce the amount of toys they have:mg: and then convince the grand parents that if they insist on buying new toys for birthdays and (if you celebrate it) Christmas, then the kids have to remove the obsolete items, to achieve increased inventory turns and reduce levels..............
I'm thinking you'd be better off implementing 5S in your garage or tool shed, out of the way of the family!
Of course, it won't end with 5S in the house. You then have to arrange such things as one piece flow - at meal times that will be a problem too......
Best of luck........
