Visual Controls

Visual Controls is a lean tool that will help your organization:

• Expose waste so it can be eliminated and prevented from recurring in the future
• Make your company’s operating standards known to all employees so they can be easily followed
• Improve workplace efficiency through organization

TAG’s experienced lean practitioners can assist you with implementing the three key steps to achieving Visual Control

• Implement 5S and Workplace Organization
• Establish required work standards and related information to be displayed in the workplace
• Control all workplace processes by exposing and stopping errors

The Benefits of Visual Controls include:

• Improve the “first-time-through” quality of your products or services by preventing most errors and defects before they occur, enabling rapid response to those that do occur, establishing standards for zero defects
• Improve workplace safety by removing hazards, improving communications, and creating compliance with all work standards
• Improve the overall efficiency of your workplace and equipment
• Lower your total costs
