The lean-stack take

In a lean operation it supports standard work and cross-training. You can see who is qualified for each task on each shift, spot gaps before they hurt, and keep certifications current.

Best for

Operations with many shifts and certifications that need to know who can do which job.

Watch out for

AG5 is built for skills and certification management. If you also need a full LMS or HR system, check how it connects to the ones you use.
