The lean-stack take

For a lean team it moves the suggestion box and CI tracker out of spreadsheets. Ideas are submitted, evaluated, carried out and shown on a gemba board, and the people who raised them can be rewarded.

Best for

Plants and multi-site manufacturers that want to run an employee suggestion and kaizen system outside spreadsheets.

Features

What Ekaizen offers

Idea submission and tracking

Employees submit ideas and follow them through to completion. This supports a kaizen suggestion system where every idea gets an answer.

Evaluation

An evaluation module covers how ideas are assessed and approved. Clear criteria help supervisors decide quickly and consistently.

Kaizen overview and gemba board

A gemba board view shows kaizen status for an area. Leaders can review it during gemba walks or daily huddles.

CI project management

CI project management and a project charter cover improvements too large for a single suggestion. This suits kaizen events and A3-style projects.

Collaboration

A collaboration module covers teamwork on ideas and projects. Several people can contribute to one improvement.

Rewards and recognition

An employee rewards and recognition module covers recognizing the people behind ideas. Recognition is a common part of a kaizen suggestion system.

Configuration

A configuration and flexibility page covers adapting the system to a company's own process. Sites can match their existing suggestion rules.

Multi-site kaizen

A corporate solution covers kaizen management across a group. Vendor case studies describe MSA Safety and a move from Excel sheets to CI management across 7 FIP plants.

Lean techniques supported
