YCMPS is the abbreviation of Yeong Chin Machinery Production System. By learning the essence of “Toyota Productivity System”, YCM would like to innovate its own unique production system as well as integrating with the current production process.

TPS is based on two major concepts, “Just in Time” (JIT) and “Jidoka.” The purposes are to eliminate all kinds of waste and create an efficient process flow. The main idea of YCMPS is around 5S.

5S is the name of a workplace organization methodology which combines five Japanese words starting with the letter s, “Seiri, Seisou, Seiton, Seiketsu and Shitsuke.”, and these five Japanese words stand for five phases.

Phase 1, “Seiri”, means sorting;
phase 2, “Seisou”, means cleaning;
phase 3, “Seiton”, means setting in order;
phase 4, “Seiketsu”, means standardizing;
phase 5, “Shitsuke” means sustaining the discipline.

By going through these 5 phases, every participant learns to eliminate all kind of waste and raises the company’s competence by offering customers the products with high quality and the greatest services. YCM strongly believes that constant internal improvements are the best solution for the company to develop sustainably in this competitive environment.
