CANDO system vs. the 5s concept

I am doing an assignment of lean manufacture and the 5s concept; I have also been assigned to do CANDO (the western equivalent). Can you help distinguish these from the 5s and give me the titles of CANDO?

Thanks,

Wikipedia.org now has a definition for 5S that includes reference to CANDO (Cleanup, Arranging, Neatness, Discipline, and Ongoing improvement); it may be enough info for you.
