3. BUILD WITH US. ™ 3 6S Overview: Safety (Self-Discipline) –Ensuring compliance and protection of our employees Sort –Clearly distinguish needed items from unneeded items and eliminate the latter. Set In Order (Simplify) –Keep needed items in the correct place to allow for easy and immediate retrieval. Shine (Sweep) –Keep the workshop swept and clean. Standardize –Standardized cleanup. This is the condition we support when we maintain the first three steps. Sustain (Self-Discipline) –Make a habit of maintaining established procedures.
