Track daily actions
Examples of Visual Management Action Boards
To follow are examples of different types of Visual Management Action 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. That is to say, give it visibility, at a glance. This example is a Daily Action board. Consequently, it tracks progress on a daily basis. As a result, show actions and progress. Furthermore, add magnetic number sets to update status in real time. Most importantly, your board is effective for making Continuous Improvement visual and accessible. In short, make your commitment visual with your Visual Management Action Board.
Visual Management Action Boards for tracking your process
In short, use a metric tracking system through each stage of your process. As a result, highlight what actions need to happen. Similarly, show status visually. Furthermore, make your board dry wipe (dry eraze). This example of a visual management action board offers a highly visual approach. In addition, one that is engaging and creates impact.

Track daily metrics and follow up with an Action Plan
Choose to add magnetic status counters to your Tracker Board
Action tracker boards
So, design an Action tracker board. Firstly, decide what to record and show on your board. Secondly, consider the finish – dry wipe (or dry eraze) allows quick and easy updates. Thirdly, status indicators provide a visual snapshot of progress. This example uses red, yellow and green magnetic status counters to show current situation. See more examples of magnetic status counters.
Short Term and Long Term Actions Boards
Firstly, decide which actions are short term and which are long term. Above all, make progress visual. In addition, this board is dry wipe (dry eraze). As a result, it is very simple to write information on the board and make real time updates. Assign a person to the action, and follow up with a deadline. Therefore, drive Continuous Improvement.
Split your Actions board into both short term and long term actions
5S Action plan
Visual Management Action Boards for 5S and 6S
Above all, visually engage your team in your process and track progress of your 5S and 6S. That is to say, give it visibility, at a glance. Most importantly, your board is effective for making Continuous Improvement visual and accessible. Above all, show your action plan visually and make it accessible. For the whole team.
Most importantly, your board visually supports Continuous Improvement. Furthermore, it visually engages your team in the process. In addition, it creates a space where this process routinely happens. Similarly, it makes an area where your team can collaborate and record results.
Visual Management Action Boards for Problem Solving
Use your Practical Problem Solving action board in a number of ways. Firstly, for example, identify and show the problem. Secondly, show root cause. Thirdly identify solutions. Finally, show improvements.
Meanwhile, analyse underlying cause(s) of problems. Furthermore, come up with countermeasures and share them on your tracker board. Subsequently, put those countermeasures into action. After that, assess targets and evaluate results. Finally, use findings to learn, and move forward.

Consider a magnetic overlay for your action board
Visual Management Action Boards magnetic overlay
Make your action board as a magnetic overlay. Therefore, use an existing whiteboard. In addition, overlays are convenient to roll and store when not in use. Furthermore, they are easy to replace or update.

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.
