The paper-station example keeps an item ledger beside a labeled home map. It compares a fictional Tray B observation with I1’s declared Tray A home, then lets you model a later Tray A recheck. The first mismatch remains in the history; neither view disposes of the flyer or certifies a sustained routine.

Use the five parts as a practical sequence
EPA describes the 5S cycle as Sort, Set in Order, Shine, Standardize and Sustain. For this ordinary paper station, use those concepts to decide what belongs, label its home, inspect condition under the approved routine and compare repeat observations. This draft does not include industrial cleanup or equipment work.
Confirm the actual station, SOP version, responsible owner, effective date and item-handling authority before use. An attractive map cannot supply those approvals. The sample uses three fictional items and a proposed start/end-of-session record. Real cadence and condition-check methods belong to the owner's procedure, not a universal interval inferred from this page.
Hold an undecided item without deciding its fate
I1 is a set of blank instruction cards needed for the station's task. Its declared example home is Tray A. Confirm actual content, use and the home decision in the real record. I2 is an unused old flyer whose ownership and retention decision are unknown. Its label is ReviewHold, not trash.
I3 is a pencil stub with usefulness unknown, so it needs owner review. Neither age nor size establishes whether an item may be discarded. Keep item ID, observed condition/use, the decision reference, home or hold status and next action together. The preview can filter the two unresolved items without pretending their decisions have been obtained.
Compare the observed home with the reference
The map labels Tray A “Instruction cards” and keeps a separate review-hold area. The fictional baseline observation puts I1 in Tray B. Comparing Tray B with the Tray A reference produces Placement mismatch. It does not mean the cards are missing or prove a stock shortage.
Use the recheck control to model I1 in Tray A. That new comparison matches the declared home, but the earlier Tray B observation stays visible. The control changes an illustrative observation, not the physical station. If the owner changes the approved home instead, preserve that decision and update the maintained reference; do not rewrite the old criterion to make the earlier check look correct.
Separate a condition observation from an action
For Shine, record visible paper clutter and item condition using the actual approved routine. A note can create a follow-up question, but it does not establish repair completion, safety clearance or disposal permission. Leave actual findings, owners and dates blank until someone observes and records them.
For Standardize, keep the home labels and start/end check fields consistent. Each row needs checkpoint, criterion, actual observation/reference, mismatch or unresolved question, responsible follow-up and later recheck. The working record should make it possible to trace a change from the original finding to the later observation.
Use repeat evidence for the next review
One matching recheck is one event, not proof that the arrangement is sustained. The local preview identifies its history as fictional and offers blank temporary SOP metadata, item decisions, start/end checkpoints and a follow-up note. It does not turn an empty log or a tidy picture into an audit score.
Before the next session, revisit I2's ownership question and I3's usefulness question. Leave each item with a confirmed home or an explicit pending decision, and keep those decisions separate from placement checks. Reset restores the original example; actual approved SOPs and owner decisions stay in the controlled document or workbook.
Copy this prompt
Create a complete original HTML example in US English for this task: 5S SOP template. Return one self-contained HTML file. Include all styles, data and JavaScript in the file. Use no remote dependencies. Return the working page, not an outline.
Fictional shared paper station. I1 blank instruction cards needed, declared home Tray A; baseline observed Tray B means placement mismatch. I2 old flyer ownership/retention unknown, ReviewHold. I3 pencil stub usefulness unknown, owner review. No actual owners, approvals, effective date or checks supplied. Proposed start/end checkpoints, not universal cadence.
Create an original labeled station diagram with Tray A, Tray B and a separate ReviewHold area, plus an item-decision ledger. All-items and Open-decisions buttons filter real sample rows and show counts. A labeled observed-home input and Compare button calculate I1 match/mismatch against Tray A. Reject blank/unknown home codes instead of inventing a result. A Tray A recheck button updates the scenario while preserving the baseline Tray B history. Show why a single match cannot prove Sustain. Provide blank SOP ID/version, owner/approval and effective-date fields. For each item, add observed use/condition, decision/reference and home/hold/next action. Add start/end criterion, observation/reference, mismatch/unknown, follow-up and recheck fields. Keep actual records blank and temporary. No disposal controls, automatic pass, audit score, approvals, notifications or actual cleaning.
Use a page design suited to this particular task, readable text at least 16 px, generous spacing, visible keyboard focus and explicit labels. At 360 px, stack the content without page-level horizontal scrolling. Use type="button" click handlers for actions. Keep source facts and sample results distinct from actual observations. Leave unknown details visible rather than inventing them. Controls update only this temporary page; distinguish local changes from actual records. Provide concise task-specific feedback and a reset that clears entered answers and stale results.
Ask the owner about the two held items
Take I2’s ownership and retention question and I3’s usefulness question to the station owner. Enter the decision references before changing either item’s status. For the next session, render the HTML station comparison in NOS so the earlier Tray B mismatch remains visible beside the proposed home. Compare I1 with that home and add the new observation to the start/end record.
