  • Ben from Prestige Woodworks is already hands-on getting stuck in with the skills matrix module we launched to clients this week! In less just over 2 minutes he's runs us through how to set up a new training module, assign to team members, log trainers, track progress and view the SOP for one of the processes. What is the skills matrix? The GembaDocs Skills module is a tool designed to enhance workforce development and operational efficiency. By integrating with Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs) and supporting offline training records, it creates a comprehensive, user-friendly framework for managing skills, competencies, and training across teams. When is it release? It lands in January 2025 to everyone, but client's can request early access by emailing support@gembadocs.com Thanks again to Ben for the video, and sharing how simple the new module is! #TrainingRecord #SkillsMatrix #GembaDocs

  • GembaDocs' Skills Module is already making waves by eliminating waste across the board for early adopters! Here's a how just one company has levelled-up their training processes, reduced waste and embraced a new method of training record keeping. The by-product of adopting the Skills Matrix was reducing SO MUCH waste 🗑️... 🔁Overprocessing: Eliminates the need for repetitive updates to training records and manual cross-referencing. In the past, they've had to create their own matrix in Excel, inputting and maintaining a lot of data weekly. Now, the matrix is automatically generated and ties in with SOPs. 🚩Defects: Reduces errors from missed validations and expired training records. They can now set expiry dates and avoid manually going through each folder to make sure everyone is validated. 🕒Waiting: Speeds up access to skill data by centralizing SOPs and training records. Instead of going folder by folder to verify who’s signed off on what, everything is now digitally linked and instantly accessible. ⏭ Motion: Cuts down unnecessary physical movement in managing folders. Previously, they had to move folders from the office to a secure location and back every time they needed to update a record. This process was very, very labor-intensive. 📦Inventory: Reduces clutter from storing unnecessary or outdated physical files. As they used to store folders in a secure location, which took up space and effort to organize. Now, everything is saved instantly and digitally in GembaDocs. 🌟Underutilization of Talent: Enhances workforce planning by quickly identifying skill gaps. The big winner is it shows where the gaps are, so they can prioritize training and focus on the right areas at the right time.

  • Out with dated ERP inventory labelling - in with an integrated visual Kanban system! We're loving the journey of Brian Meyers and his team at Fat American Manufacturing as they embrace all aspects of GembaDocs and today he's taking us through his inventory system upgrade. Frustrated with the old ERP inventory system, which was limited with no product information other than a system number (and often lead to over production causing defects) he wanted to overhaul it to minimize waste, and be easier for the team to utilize. The leveling-up, so far, was to introduce an easy visual Kanban system (using GembaDocs), which also includes a way to re-stock easily through QR codes, as well as display the information needed from the ERP system. See how it's going in this 2 minute Kanban tour.

  • Jez Rhodes , Continuous Improvement/Lean Manager at Masonite®, shares how their team transformed efficiency: ''With QR code ordering triggered straight to the supplier, how simple! To coin a phrase, "put the answer where the question is.'' This approach ensures suppliers receive orders instantly, eliminating delays and simplifying the process for everyone involved. It’s a game-changer for operational clarity and productivity. #LeanManagement #ProcessEfficiency #ContinuousImprovement #Masonite

  • Brian Meyers of JcrOffroad Inc.- faced a big ERP and inventory challenge this week, his late night tour takes us through how they adapted Kanban card setups and developed new SOPs for ERP, inventory and packaging. This type of hands-on problem-solving is crucial in lean manufacturing, ensuring every part is production-ready and customer-prepared. Watch how a simple Kanban card development led to a full-scale operational pivot! #LeanManufacturing #Kanban

  • Consistency, quality, and safety are non-negotiable in manufacturing—and that's where standard operating procedures (SOPs) shine.
