Virat Services Case Study: Turning Chaos into Clarity - A Fabrication Unit's 5S Journey
Background A mid-sized engineering and fabrication workshop was facing increasing operational challenges due to years of material accumulation and unstructured storage practices. Pipes, plates, structural sections, tools, scrap, and reusable materials were mixed together without zoning or identification. This resulted in: Loss of usable space Difficulty locating materials Repeated purchase of already-available stock Safety hazard from unstable stacking No visibility of actual inventory Poor overall shopfloor discipline The management engaged Virat Services for a practical, on-ground 5S systemization drive.
