5S in IT Industry
-
Clean up unused test codes/ test.
-
During data extraction, apply filters to load only the required set of data for analysis (and to avoid huge volume
of unwanted data).
-
Arranging the codes/files/data/items etc. in specific sets
based on the functionality. Setting a proper hierarchy and
adding all objects related to the same functionality together
according to the hierarchy.
-
Adding meaningful comments in codes/files so that
anyone can easily understand the functionality. This also
helps a new developer to easily debug issues or know
where to make a change when required.
-
Defining standard requirement gathering process and
documentation so that there is no confusion on what
business needs.
-
Quarterly Change Management Audits to analyze deviations
from standard process.
