Standard Operating Procedure Boards work because they show your procedures in a visual, step-by-step way. They provide the most relevant information for the given procedure. Furthermore, they uphold your standards in a consistent way. In other words, they support uniformity in quality standards and performance. Similarly, they reduce miscommunications relating to procedures. Finally, they support the team to comply with regulations. Above all, they are an instantly accessible visual reference for all the team to work from.

Why SOP Boards are important

Interestingly, the average person apparently holds about seven things in mind at once. Therefore, while your team might be fully aware of your procedures, it’s worth providing checkpoints. Consequently, this is when Standard Operating Procedure Boards are so useful. That is to say, your team has instant access on hand to the most relevant information. Furthermore, complex procedures are broken down into simple steps. Therefore, take them in, at a glance. Finally, and most importantly, use SOP boards to maintain consistency in your standards. So, no matter if, for example, staff, demand, or other factors change, the standards you operate by remains the same.

How Standard Operating Procedure Boards work

Firstly, SOP Boards show the most relevant information about your processes. Secondly, in a way that is instantly clear. Finally, they show your standards for the procedure. Furthermore, in a position that is close to the procedure.

A further tip is to make your quality check station stand out. Therefore, make it outstanding! Clear, bright and engaging visuals are key.

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.
