ARBL Wins CII's Efficiency

India's leading battery manufacturer, Amara Raja Batteries Ltd., has been awarded the 5S Excellence Award 2005 by the Confederation of Indian Industry (CII).

The first battery company to win the award, ARBL scored 732 points out of 1,000.

The CII's 5S Award is patterned after a Japanese

procedure that stands for 'seiri' (sort), 'seiton' (systematic arrangement), 'seiso' (shine), 'seiketsu' (standardise) and 'shitsuke' (sustain).

"The 5S structured approach has led to commitment at every level, and higher standards of efficiency and production," said Jay Dev Galla, ARBL's managing director.
