Visual Workplace Overview

Visual Workplace

"A Visual Workplace is a work environment that is self-ordering, self-explaining, self-regulating and self-improving - where what is supposed to happen does happen, on time, every time, because of visual solutions." - Dr. Gwendlyn Galsworth, QMI / Visual-Lean Institute, author of "Visual Workplace, Visual Thinking"

Too often, employees lack the knowledge they need to do their jobs efficiently and effectively.

In a visual workplace, visual devices are positioned at the point of use, giving employees instant access to the critical information they need, right when they need it. Visuals can easily be understood at a glance, eliminating the wasted downtime that had previously been spent searching, asking, or waiting for information.

There are many additional benefits of visuals in the workplace; they support on-the-job training, build operational stability and sustain lean improvements.

Creating a visually instructive work environment is the foundation of any successful lean manufacturing initiative. Learn more about visual workplace and lean manufacturing.
