SOPs with QR codes, fishbone diagrams, kanban replenishment cards, Kamishibai audit boards, the Hoshin Kanri Strategy Matrix and more — built into Lone Nut Kaizen and tied to your ideas, KPIs, and people. No more stale Word docs or whiteboard photos.
5S Audit Boards
Score Sort · Set · Shine · Standardize · Sustain out of 100.
Run the standard 25-question 5S walk-through (5 questions per category) on the classic Hirano 0–4 scale. Tag the area, site, and department, save your scores with optional comments per question, and watch each area's /100 score evolve over time. No AI credits, available on every plan.
- 25-question template covering Sort, Set in Order, Shine, Standardize, Sustain
- 0–4 Hirano scoring with on-screen guidance for every level
- Per-question comment box so corrective actions don't get lost
- Per-category subtotals and a colour-coded /100 total
- Audit history filtered by area, site, or department
- Available on every plan — no AI credits used
Idea Task Checklists
Turn each idea into a tracked, tickable plan.
Every idea in the dashboard now has its own task checklist. Break the implementation down into the steps you'll actually do, assign them, tick them off, and watch progress roll up into the PDCA status of the parent idea.
- Add unlimited tasks under any idea
- Tick off, reorder, and re-assign as the work evolves
- Progress visible from the idea card and the prioritisation board
- Works on every plan — no upgrade required
SOPs + QR Codes
Standard work that lives on the shop floor.
Build standard operating procedures with steps, photos, notes, and colour-coded safety / quality / info callouts. Publish them and stick the printable QR code on the machine — operators scan and get the latest version on their phone.
- Step-by-step editor with photos, notes, and safety / quality callouts
- Draft → Published workflow with version history
- Printable QR posters that always point to the latest version
- Mobile-friendly shop-floor view, no login required
Fishbone (Ishikawa) Diagrams
Walk a problem through the 6 Ms with the team.
A digital Ishikawa for every problem statement. Capture causes across the classic 6 Ms — People, Process, Equipment, Materials, Environment, Measurement — and build a shared root-cause picture the whole team can edit together.
- Pre-built 6M categories, fully editable
- Add, remove, and re-order causes inline
- Auto-saves as you type — collaborate live
- Pairs naturally with the 5 Whys AI tool to drill deeper
Kanban Replenishment Cards
Pull-system replenishment.
Track parts, consumables, and finished goods through a classic supplier–transit–customer pull cycle. Each card has a unique number, part details, supplier, customer, and a live status — perfect for digitising your bin-replenishment loops without printing.
- Unique card numbers, part / supplier / customer metadata
- Three-status workflow: At Customer → In Transit → At Supplier
- Bulk view across all cards or filter by status
- Export-ready for printing physical bin cards too
Kamishibai Audit Boards
Layered process audits at a glance.
A digital Kamishibai (T-card) board for safety, 5S, quality and equipment checks. Each card shows a colour-coded status — green OK, red overdue, dark-red failed, grey never-checked — based on its frequency and check history, so leaders can see the whole audit programme in one view.
- Daily / weekly / biweekly / monthly / quarterly cadences
- Auto-calculated status: OK, overdue, failed, never-checked
- One-click pass / fail with notes to record each check
- Full history per card for audits and trend reviews
A3 Problem-Solving Reports
The classic Lean A3 — one page from problem to confirmed result.
Walk any problem through the seven-step Toyota A3 method on a single fillable page: Background, Current Condition, Goal, Root Cause, Countermeasures, Implementation Plan, and Follow-up. Optionally link a Fishbone you've already built for the root-cause section, assign action items with owners and due dates, flip the status from Draft → In Progress → Complete, and print the finished report straight from the browser.
- Seven standard A3 sections laid out two-column for desktop, stacked for mobile
- Action-items table with owners, due dates, and status
- Optional link to an existing Fishbone for root-cause analysis
- Draft → In Progress → Complete status flow
- Print-friendly layout for sharing the finished A3 on the shop floor
- Available on Starter and Pro plans — no AI credits used
Hoshin Kanri Strategy Matrix
Strategy deployment on a single page.
The classic Hoshin Kanri Strategy Matrix. Connect long-term strategies to annual objectives, the tactics that will deliver them, the KPIs you'll measure, and the people responsible — with weak / strong correlation marks linking everything together.
- Four lists: strategies, objectives, tactics, KPIs
- Resource / owner column for accountability
- Weak (○) and strong (●) correlation marks across all four corners
- Editable in place — your whole strategy on one screen
