This project required a study of the 5S program, involving commercialization and logistics in the municipality of Parintins. In this context, the implementation was carried out at Bramam, a beverage industry located in this municipality. The aim was to improve the efficiency and organization of its logistics operations by implementing an improvement project based on the 5S program, a widely used Japanese methodology for promoting organization and discipline in work environments. The general objective of the 5S project at Bramam was to promote a cultural change among employees, focusing on continuous improvement, through the implementation of the program's five principles: sorting, setting in order, systematic cleaning, standardizing, and sustaining. These principles were applied in the logistics sector, assessed in three departments: warehouse, trucks, and forklifts, aiming to enhance the use, organization, cleanliness, maintenance, and discipline in the use of these machines, seeking positive results in terms of efficiency, productivity, safety, and quality. With this research, we expect to obtain relevant insights and conclusions that can contribute to understanding the effectiveness of the 5S program in the logistics sector of the beverage company under study. The project is implemented with results that can be used as a basis for the implementation or improvement of the 5S program in other organizations, aiming to enhance the quality of services and operational performance in the workplace.
