Kaizen Project is the planning, implementing, and sustaining process control and continual improvement through employee engagement. This app provides fundamental information on the basics types and phases of Kaizen Events with the ability to add default (and customized) activities to each phase, text, and images in a standardized, customizable, and sharable format on the cloud. The Standard Kaizen Event will be thoroughly detailed and provide basic steps for the three phases of all Kaizen Events: Planning, Implementation, and Follow-up.

The Dynamic Kanban Action Item Board allows Action Items to be visually managed using 4 “buckets” of To Do, In Progress, In Review, and Done allowing for Assignor to track progress by a simple drag and drop function to each bucket. Emails are automatically sent to Assignee(s) for all Action Items.

The 4 buckets functions as follows:

To Do – The Assignor will create the Action Item and reside there until the Assignee receives the email notification and acknowledges receipt to the Assignor via email or text. The Assignor then moves it to In Progress.
In Progress – The Assignee will work on the Action Item and once completed notify the Assignor. The Assignor then moves it to In Review.
In Review – The Assignor will ensure the Action Item is completed and move it to Done, or if not completed, make comments and move it back to In Progress, and subsequently notify the Assignee.
Done – The Assignor moves the Action Item to Done once they are satisfied that it has been fully completed.

Beyond educational purposes, this app provides suggested activities for each phase, along with the ability to customize specific activities for a Kaizen Project report and Action Item tracking.
