Our KPI Action Board is based on the Lean 1-3-10 second rule. This is a principle that aims to convey critical information to team members within a short space of time. In the context of problem-solving or decision-making, the rule suggests that individuals should strive to make initial observations and judgments within one second.
With our printed dry erase KPI Action Board, you should be able to see from the color red on the calendar if there is a problem (1 second). From the A4 graph or chart, you should be able to tell where the problem lies (3 seconds) and from looking at the table, you should be able to understand what the countermeasure is, who the problem owner is and what the current status is within 10 seconds. This rule aims to foster agility, efficiency, and proactive problem-solving by encouraging quick thinking, effective communication, and timely execution of tasks.
This offers an opportunity to visualize the occurrence and severity of issues. For example – on the S for Safety calendar, RED denotes an accident, AMBER, a first aid incident and GREEN, denotes no accidents. Simply color these in with a dry wipe marker pen each day to get an overall view of your KPI performance. Our starter kit is a great way to get started.
The additional Solo Magnetic Document Holder Windows (not included) next to each letter help display charts or other information relevant to the respective KPI. You can either display pie charts, bar charts, pareto charts, progress reports or any other relevant information for your business. You can find the choice of magnetic A4 document holders here
Finally, the table on the right focuses on KPI related issues and is aimed at solving them in an effective manner. It does this by following a structured problem solving methodology of identifying the issue, developing countermeasures, assigning responsibility, and tracking the status.
