Examples of Kanban Visual Management Boards

A Kanban system in which cards move along a process (or production line) translates extremely well into a visual management board. To follow are examples of different types of Kanban inspired visual management boards. We make each and every board individually. Therefore, it specifically meets your needs. Custom making each board means the design and size fits your workspace. Likewise, close to the process at hand.

Above all, visually engage your team in your process. Likewise, at each and evert stage. That is to say, give your process visibility, at a glance. Most importantly, your board is effective for making Continuous Improvement visual and accessible. In short, move forward at every stage with your Kanban Board.

So, for this example, the client wanted to track their parts/job process through the different stages. Consequently, the Kanban board provides a visual snapshot of their tasks at each and every stage.

Kanban board for tracking your tasks

In short, use a card system in which you move task cards through each stage of your process. As a result, use cards to show tasks. Similarly, use columns on your board for each stage of  your process. Colour coding each section adds to the visual impact of your board. Also, this increases engagement within your team.

Furthermore, for longevity and ease of updating, make the cards magnetic. Likewise, dry wipe (dry eraze). In addition, make a Kanban board that is quick and easy to use.

Our Approach

We create visual management displays and 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 and visual 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.
