Re: any resource about visual management - visual factory

Glad you're here with that 1st post!

I'd recommend that you do a search here, too. I'm pretty certain this has been discussed before. Also, at the bottom of this page, there's a list of related posts, so try there too!

Has anyone here had any experiences or information they can share?

I did see this thread here: Visual Factory Rules Needed but haven't seen much else. Jim cited this link in that thread: Visual Factory

What is Visual Factory? Quick Definition

Visual factory is a term to describe how data and information is conveyed in a lean manufacturing environment. In a lean manufacturing environment time and resources dedicated to conveying information, although necessary, are a form of waste. By using visual methods to convey information such as signs, charts and and-ons, information is easily accessible to those who need it. The current status of all processes is immediately apparent.


I also found this: Lean Projects from Quality Department - Visual factory.

I think there's no more resources about visual management on this board. Because I searched on elsmarc.om anything about VM but I couldnt find anymore.

How can I access detailed information about it ? Could you inform me about another lean boards or forums on net?

What Are Visual Management Tools?

Visual management is the application of any visual aid or device that promotes safer, more efficient, and less wasteful processes. The goal in using visual management is to create "status at a glance." This means an operating environment where normal vs. abnormal operating conditions can be detected easily and rapidly.

Visual management tools are used to:
• Provide status at a glance, enabling quick and simple detection of abnormal operating conditions
• Provide visual aids to help employees complete tasks more quickly and in a more standardized approach​

Visual management creates a standardized work environment by providing instructions, directions, reminders, etc., on how the work is to be done. There are limitless possibilities in applying visual management. In fact, most companies probably have some visual management devices already in place.

From signs, to painted aisles, to dial indicators on equipment, these basic applications of visual management exist in most operating or administrative environment. The key is to find creative ways to apply visual management to reduce waste in activities, connections, and flows. Some common visual management techniques include:

• Color Coding
• Pictures/Graphics
• Kanban Cards
• Colored Lines
• Signage
• Labeling
• Control Boards
• Area Information Boards
• Gages, Dials, etc.
• Checklists​


I did find the attached file. It may help a bit.

What Marc has offered is quite good.
To enhance your search (via Google) you may want to go with "5S visual management", Lean visual workplace", and the like. I get many good hits with those.

Further, for reading, try 5 PILLARS OF THE VISUAL WORKPLACE by Hirano, Hiroyuki
