Most importantly, make your own visual management colour coding system. In other words, choose the colours and key you need for your visual management board.
More than RAG
Above all, visual management colour coding is more than just Red Green. Similarly, it is not limited to RAG (Red Amber Green). In other words, you choose the colour coding. Above all, make your system or process visible and accessible. Likewise, at a glance. So, for instance, add Blue and Black to standard Red and Green. For example, like the visual board pictured here. Most importantly, know that you can choose whatever colours you need.
Show greater detail
Certainly, Red Amber Green offers a universal code. Furthermore, it is an extremely effective colour coding system. On the other hand, if RAG does not offer enough options, then use more. Likewise, deliver further detail. In other words, show every shade between Red, Amber and Green. As a result, show an exact status on your board. In addition, add numerical references too. See further examples of Status Indicator Meters showing this in action.
Dry wipe options
Finally, remember that dry wipe updates are not limited to Red, Blue, Green and Black. Whether, for instance, you are making an NCR system visual, or a adding a key to a team holiday planner, choose the visual management colour coding approach you want.

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.
