Key points for getting to grips with visual management and making it work
- It sounds obvious but make your boards highly visual. Therefore, make it stand out.
- Make information visible, at a glance. So, quickly and easily available to everyone.
- Aim for visual transparency. In other words, aim for easy to review; quick to understand; and show what to do next…
- Create visuals that you can update. For example, with dry wipe. Therefore, track the process in real time.
- Use visual tools to show status. For example, use visual status indicators.

Our Approach
We create visual management boards everyday. As a result we have plenty of experience. We work for organisations in food production, the power industry, national rail, pharmaceuticals, education, healthcare, packaging and distribution.
Our team works with a simple idea or sketch and creates a professionally designed layout. This is then turned into a highly functional visual management board.
We offer customised options because we want to create the perfect board for you. So, here are a few examples. We can add magnetic areas or a dry-wipe finish (for use with whiteboard pens). Furthermore, you can choose Red/Green sliders or R.A.G. (Red, Amber, Green) status dials so you can quickly and visually update your board. These are just a few examples of the ways in which our boards can be tailored to meet your needs. You may also be interested in whiteboard overlays that can be used on top of an existing magnetic board.
