Lean Gemba Walk Rp 4‏+

Gemba Walk is the engagement of the employees for the understanding of their processes and ideas for Improvement. This app provides fundamental information on the requirements for creating a Gemba Walk departmental checklist with the ability to add default (and customized) activities to each department, text, and images in a standardized, customizable, and sharable format on the cloud. This tool assists to integrate mission, vision, and values to organizational measurements with a customized Gemba Walk for managers, supervisors, and leaders to better understand processes at their source.

The Dynamic Kanban Action Item Board allows Action Items to be visually managed using 4 “buckets” of To Do, In Progress, In Review, and Done allowing for Assignor to track progress by a simple drag and drop function to each bucket. Emails are automatically sent to Assignee(s) for all Action Items.

The 4 buckets functions as follows:

To Do – The Assignor will create the Action Item and reside there until the Assignee receives the email notification and acknowledges receipt to the Assignor via email or text. The Assignor then moves it to In Progress.
In Progress – The Assignee will work on the Action Item and once completed notify the Assignor. The Assignor then moves it to In Review.
In Review – The Assignor will ensure the Action Item is completed and move it to Done, or if not completed, make comments and move it back to In Progress, and subsequently notify the Assignee.
Done – The Assignor moves the Action Item to Done once they are satisfied that it has been fully completed.

Beyond educational purposes, this app provides suggested activities for a customizable and standardized use for a Gemba Walk report and Action Item tracking.
