Case Study: Adient achieves near-perfect 5S audit scores and saves time with Weever

Adient boosts 5S scores from 85% to 97% with Weever

Adient, a global leader in automotive seating, faced challenges with its paper and spreadsheet-based 5S auditing process at its Liverpool plant. This inefficient system led to missing documents, unresolved issues, and stagnant scores, which disengaged frontline staff. The company needed a digital solution to save time and enhance visibility, leading them to partner with vendor Weever for its 5S audit software.

Weever implemented its digital 5S audit templates, which automated reporting, triggered action items for failures, and provided real-time visibility. This solution was rolled out plantwide in under three months. The results were significant, including time savings of four hours per week, a reduction in open issues from over 60 to less than five per month, and an increase in plantwide 5S audit scores from 85% to 97%.
