Hi Tim, I hope you can travel to the Philippines April 15 to speak in the
management training. You can prepare a two-three hour presentation on
resource management.
You can talk about the application of 5S in school setting, recycling and
inventing in schools may also be included in the presentation. There are two
events in the Phil that I will be hosting Apr 16-18 and Apr 25-26.
You can take KL- CLark via Air asia. I'm near Clark. I can meet you there.
Ng Khar Thoe and Dr. Chong are now here in the Phil.
Target participants are school heads and teachers.
Your plan to application of 5s in schools synergies recycling and innovation
is appropriate. I expect around 500 (or more) each session. I pay my foreign
consultants 1000us$. I shoulder travel expenses including plane tickets and
hotel. I hope this will be ok with you..
Resource Management
Managing all of a school's resources represents a
considerable challenge. Demanding business
acumen,( ability to make good judgments and quick decisions) financial awareness,
planning ability, IT knowledge and excellent
management skills.
Scope:
 Overview of Lean Principals in a World Class
Environment.
 5S as a Lean foundation used in Resource
management.
 Application of 5S in a school setting- in exposing,
identifying and elimination of Waste.
 Recycling in school setting using 5S methodology.
What is Resource Management?
Resource Management is the efficient and effective deployment of an
organization's resources in the most efficient way possible , maximizing the
utilization of available resources to achieve organization goals.
Such resources may include tangible resources such as
Tangible
Resources
It can also include ideas, making sure that people
are assigned to task that will add value and not
have too much under utilization. These include…

Vision Statement , why?
Successful schools have a clear sense of direction through Vision Statement.
–shared sense of direction derived through a visioning process involving all members of the school.
Once affirmed, it needs to be able to be articulated by all.
-when achieved everyone can then align their efforts behind the vision and by a process of self-reference
and professional development the school will reach.
Translation into reality
- by means of a Teaching Framework or belief system.
eg:
To be the center of excellence, renown internationally for
Educational Innovations exceeding expectations of National
Standards put forward by the Teacher Training Agency
The question now is…
…What is Lean Principles?
Lean is the revolutionary
super-efficient production
system pioneered by Toyota.
The core focus of "Lean" is
to vigorously eliminate
Wastes.
Lean Principles is a
methodology, modeled from
a Toyota manufacturing
strategy that eliminates
waste to reduce cost,
improve quality and delivery
performance.

Lean is NOT people working harder to produce more.
Lean Methodology results in greater profit by reducing costs.
Lean Organization focus on:
Cost Reduction by identifying, then eliminating Waste
Lean: The Relentless Elimination of Waste
Waste is anything other than the minimum resources
required to add value.
Value-Added Activities....
transform raw materials and information into products or service.
Is it something the Customer is willing to pay for
without changing the form, fit or function.
Non-Value-Added Activities are WASTE!!
Activities that consume resources, but don’t directly contribute to the product.
Causes of Waste

5S Definition
5S is a method for
organizing a workplace,
especially a shared
workplace (like a common
floor or an office space),
and keeping it organized.
It’s sometimes referred to
as a housekeeping
methodology, however this
characterization can be
misleading, as
workplace organization
goes beyond housekeeping.

5S is a philosophy and a way of organizing and
managing the workplace towards an organized, clean,
high-performance environment with the intent to
improve efficiency by eliminating waste.
Benefits of a 5S Environment?

It gives Ability to understand the status of a area
in 5 minutes or less by simple observation
without use of computers or speaking to anyone.”

5’S Red Tag
5S Red Tags are used to
keep the process of change
going throughout the 5S
program while remaining
organized in the process.
These 5S Red Tags are
used for visual
management of a
workspace, clearly marking
items that need to be
moved creating workplace
organization.
Red Tag Sample
2nd Seiton (Simplify)

To arrange necessary items in a proper order so
that they can be easily picked up for use
Consider:
• Visual aids are encouraged in order to help understanding
and minimize complexity.
• Labeling locations where necessary items are kept when not
in use, especially moveable items.
• Labeling drawers and notebooks to identify their contents.

With buy-in, “discipline” isn’t necessary
10 Ways to Kill 5's
1. Make sure you drive transition from the bottom up
2. Assume 5's will take place itself without training and energy
3. Try to accomplish 5'S all at once
4. Try to accomplish 5'S implementation all by yourself
5. Wait until after you begin your 5'S training to establish metrics and
measurement techniques
6. Look for magic bullet solution
7. Allow existing methodologies to be viewed as “stand-alone”
8. Assume that all leaders will understand and lead the
transformation
9. Relegate responsibility for 5'S implementation to staff function
10.Study every 5'S issues exhaustively until you have the right
solution.
Let us do it together as a Team.

Resource Leveling (Haibun)
Resource Leveling

One resource management technique is resource leveling. It aims at
smoothing the available resources on hand, reducing both excess and
shortages to meet the current demand.

The required data are: the demands for various resources, forecast by time
period into the future as far as is reasonable, as well as the resources'
configurations required in those demands, and the supply of the resources,
again forecast by time period into the future as far as is reasonable.

The goal is to achieve 100% utilization but that is very unlikely, when
weighted by important metrics and subject to constraints, for example:
meeting a minimum service level, but otherwise minimizing cost.

What is Kaizen?
KAIZEN = CONTINOUS IMPROVEMENT
IMPROVEMENT
WITHOUT
ENDING
In Japanese
KAI
ZEN
Change Good
KAI ZEN = Change for better
The small, gradual, incremental changes applied
over a long period can be add up for a major impact
on business in the future.
Question to ponder
Question. Why do a lot of schools use a system of ringing
bells to stop or start. Is it to ensure order?
Or is it to prepare the children for a profession which
requires clocking in and out?
Is it, in actuality, an acclimatization tool?
Was it’s original purpose to provide them with a means of
knowing when to be somewhere when watches were a thing
for the middle-classes and affluent adults?
Surely we need change to move with the times by looking at
the building blocks of the system and addressing each one
analytically.
We are not suggesting that there is a need for a change to
complete removal of systems. We believe that children need
structure in order to learn.
We need to change for the better to adapt to meeting
current demanding needs at the same time not
compromising the future to meet their needs.
KAIZEN at School
Schools are inundated by initiative after initiative
in education, each seemingly polarized and
disconnected- yet expected to somehow
marry a system designed for industrial
revolution in a digital renaissance.
Change, when it occurs, needs to be managed.
Teachers, are products of a previous education
system, mostly before the Digital Revolution was
introduced. We need to think of how we prepare
our children to become lifelong learners in these
fast pave technological change era.
By implementing the Kaizen
philosophy we can attempt to
bridge the educational
dichotomy and link the
importance of structure with
the need for creativity.
Change needs to happen continually in small
evolutionary steps. Surely, too, there is need for it
in education.
Why Kaizen?
To continuously eliminate waste without removing
the value added activities in the process

involved
 Keep
it going
 Activity
lesson plans
1.Start Recycling
Recycling at school is an easy
step you can take to help the
environment in three main ways:
Reuse and Recycle


Less waste in landfill sites
Turning waste into new products! Less
rubbish- fewer landfill sites, free up more
land.
Save energy and raw materials
Recycling uses less energy than making
items from scratch, eg- aluminum can
saves 95% energy needed to make new.
Help tackle climate change
Reducing Carbon dioxide is released
into the atmosphere
-cuts amounts of methane, a greenhouse
gas given off by biodegradable materials
as they rot under pressure
How much does your school waste?
1st Seiri- Sort (Organize) to find out how much waste is produced
Waste Audit to determine
- where certain types of waste are produced
-enable you to position your recycling points effectively.
- it’s not just classrooms, all indoor/outdoor areas e.g.,-,to ensure the scheme is most effective.

How much waste does your school produce?
- hard to visualize how much and the sources of it.
The average secondary- 22kg/pupil each academic year.
Primary schools higher - at 45kg/pupil.

What types of waste are produced?
- by weight just two categories:
Paper and card
Food waste
Knowing how much of each material your school produces
will help you to prioritize
-which materials to recycle
-what size bins your school will need.
Information gain from the waste audit will help you work out
which recycling collection most effective for your school.
Get your recycling collected
2nd Seiton- Simplify (Visibility)



Local council - about recycling services for
schools in your area.
Many local authorities offer their own recycling services
to schools. Find out what your local authority
offers. Those that don’t recycling services should be
able to put you in touch with organizations who
will collect recycling from schools in your area.
Further recycling services
Some local organizations offer recycling services
collection, such as printer cartridge, old mobile phone
or aluminum can recycling. These may offer money
saving opportunities or even generate a small income.
Things to consider
Access – restrictions in terms of timings and access to
your school site?
Frequency ? – recycling collection
Storage ? – where to store materials for recycling
Health and safety – issues with your school’s health
and safety representative.
Budget considerations – Recycling service cost?
offset against savings in Waste Collection?
How to set your Recycling bins
2nd Seiton- Simplify (Visibility)
Set up recycling points once you have sufficient
information on when, where and how Waste can be
collected.



Bin locations
- as close to the source of waste as possible e.g. a paper
recycling bin next to photo copier/printer.
-Recycling points and rubbish bins side by side.
Types of recycling points
-use the data from your waste audit to help you decide what
type, size and quantity of recycling bins to suit best. Consider
who will empty materials internally into external facilities, how
they will do it, what equipment they will need and how often it
will be done.
Labeling recycling points
-label recycling points clearly, so that everyone knows where
they are and what should go in them.
You can use the easily recognisable ‘Recycle materials’ to
support your school’s recycling scheme, including awareness
posters and recycling point signage.
Visit other schools to see examples of how they manage
their recycling systems.
To make recycling as easy as possible:
2Get the Whole school involved
3rd Seiso- Sweep (Cleanliness)
Involve everyone to contribute to make recycling a
success.
-For success implementation, Involve pupils and staff
across your school in setting up and running your recycling
scheme.
- If the school community has ownership of various tasks
and responsibilities, participation is likely to be higher and
