The Plan-Do-Check-Act (PDCA) method, also known as the Deming Cycle, is a structured framework for continuously improving processes. It has become a reliable tool for systematically optimizing workflows and processes in production and logistics while ensuring sustainable implementation of improvement measures. Particularly in the context of Shop Floor Management, PDCA cycles are used to identify the root causes of disruptions and deviations, systematically address them and establish lasting improvements.
Visual Shop Floor integrates and seamlessly connects each step of Plan, Do, Check, Act in a structured and intuitive user interface. This optimally supports and guides employees in the targeted implementation of the Continuous Improvement Process (CIP). In addition to facilitating the structured execution of PDCA cycle phases, the process is supported by real-time Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) to assess the effectiveness of actions and enable data-driven decision-making. By incorporating PDCA cycles into Visual Shop Floor's central task management, it ensures smooth integration into operational Shop Floor Management and enhances teamwork.
