Set In Order / Straighten - This step customizes your workstation and surrounding area to meet your work area needs. Arrange remaining items so they are easy to select, use, and return to their proper location. Shine / Sweep - This step is powerful because its purpose is to find the reason why things become dirty. Emphasis is on the removal of dust, dirt, and grime to reveal the source and eliminate it. Standardize - This step creates a work area free of checklists; if good standards are put in place it will be easier to maintain and continue improving. Sustain - Sustaining is the end result of how well we have performed the previous four S’s. In the sustainability stage, think of ways to eliminate effort in maintaining an area.
