The implementation of SMAP ( Sulitin Mo ang Paglilinis/ Pag-aayos / Pag-Implement)  7S System.

The Department of Education School Division Office of Pangasinan 1 shall be implementing the SMAP 7S SYSTEM in all offices for efficiency, productivity and quality improvement effective October 2019.

SMAP 7S is a management initiative that focuses on establishing a quality work environment in the organization, ensuring adherence to standards and in the process, fosters the spirit of continuous improvement culture, fortify work relationships and make other functional divisions, units and sections head to stay connected from each other.

Each of the seven steps plays an integral role in helping facilities successfully implement and sustain the 7S system. Once each step has been implemented, the 7S system is designed to function indefinitely. To achieve this, managers and shop employees must embrace the system by integrating it into their daily work routines. Keep in mind, reaching the final step in 7S signifies the completion of implementation, but never ends the overall system of organization. 7S should continue to cycle through previous steps, as appropriate, so a shop remains organized for maximum efficiency.

This system focuses on the following management techniques:

SORT (SEIRI) to set systematically discard items that are not needed in the office.

SET IN ORDER (SEITON) to arrange necessary items in a neat and systematic manner so that they can be easily retrieved for use and to return after use.

SHINE (SEISO) to clean and inspect the workplace thoroughly so that there will be no dirt on the floor, machines and equipments.

STANDARDIZE (SEKETSU) to maintain a high standard of workplace organization by keeping everything clean and orderly at all times.

SUSTAIN (SHITSUKI) to train people practice the 5S system faithfully so that it becomes habitual and ingrained in the culture of organization.

SAFETY. Safety is an integral part of each of the original 5S phrases. The main benefit of 6S over the benefits of 5S is that added focus on safety, used in areas with more hazardous processes it can help to reduce even further the risk of an incident.

SPIRITUALITY (Spirit) Spirit is added to remind people that it should be fun, and that creativity is key to coming up with new ideas and better ways to implement 5S. Without engaged workers , the 5S approach will not last or be successful.

When work areas are functional and clean, Division office have a better chance for achieving positive process results, higher quality, increased productivity, reduced cost, increased employee satisfaction and a safer workplace. With these procedures implemented and monitored, you can expect that your workplace will be maintained in a suitable manner and will lend itself to be a valuable asset. (Ursus Villamil Junatas)
