The 5S Institute, set up in January 2005 is India’s (and, indeed, the world’s) first Institute dedicated to the providing training, consultancy and implementation assistance inputs. Its founder – director is Shri hemendra K. Varma, an Alumnus of IIT Kharagpur (Mechanical, 1972) and IIM Ahmedabad (MEP, 1979-80). Shri Varma has close to 40 years of working experience of which 15 years were spent in the industry with companies like Voltas, G. Claridge and Jenson & Nicholson. Thereafter, in 1987, he started his own management consultancy activities in the areas of Operations Management and Organisation & Human resources Development, leading to the formation of pratik management productivity systems, as a private limited company in 1992.

As part of its work in the area of Operations Management, pratik management started concentrating on world class manufacturing practices like JIT, SMED, 5S, TPM, Kaizen and suchlike, culminating, finally, in the formation of The 5S Institute in January 2005.

The 5S Institute has so far trained over 3000 persons in over 60 companies all across India through its Certification, Introduction and Exposure Programmes. Of these, over 650 are Certified 5S Practitioners ofThe 5S institute. The Institute ah also assisted various organisations in implementing 5S including companies in various sectors like engineering, steel, ceramics, healthcare and chemical. The 5S institute is the only body to have implemented 5S in 2 of the country’s major High Courts!

It will be shortly introducing an Diploma Course in Lean Manufacturing which will be both a Public as well as In-house Programme (subject to minimum participant requirement being fulfilled)
