Shiftly 5S Checklist

Learn how the Shiftly 5S Checklist template helps operators check their work area every shift and record improvement opportunities in AlisQI.

The Shiftly 5S Checklist template is a short digital form to check a work area at the start or end of a shift. It covers the five 5S pillars, and anything not in order is recorded in the same record, so the next shift knows the state of the work area. Operators complete it on their own; shift supervisors and production managers use the same form when they walk the floor with an operator.

What's included

Field Description
Date Date of the check.

Each 5S pillar starts with one question (shown above). You can add your own questions to each pillar.
