A Visual Management Board should includes 6 key elements:

  1. Visual standards to show how the process should look when good. Likewise, these can show what it looks like when something is not right.
  2. Performance targets that are instantly visible quick to understand.
  3. Daily or weekly visual performance tracking
  4. Visible means of quickly identifying problems.
  5. Visually engaging ways of driving actions to make improvements.
  6. Visual controls like status indicators for at-a-glance reference.

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.
