Visual Management


VM (Visual Management) is the use of the visual image and color suitable for a variety of visual perception information to organize on-site production activities, a management tool to improve labor productivity is also a visual management of the scientific method. Visual management is an openness and visual display management. The integrated use of management, physiology, psychology, sociology, and other multi-disciplinary research. The visual management also known as the visualization management. Visual management is an effective means of scientific management, combined with billboards, the important part of the Toyota Production System.

Visual management principles
1) incentive principle. Visual management to play the role of staff incentive to play a catalytic role to improve the production.
2) standardization principle. Visual management tools and the use of color should be standardized and standardized, unified visualization management tools, ease of understanding and memory.
3) the principle of mass. Visual management is to make "visible management", so the visual management of mass in two aspects: First, to get the masses to understand and support, and second, to make the masses to participate and support ineffective.
4) practical principle. Visual management must be very practical, avoid formalism, to really play the role of on-site management.

Visual characteristics of management
◆ visual signal is displayed as the basic means everyone can see.
◆ to the basic principles of openness, transparency, and as much as possible the requirements and intent of the managers let
We can see, in order to promote self-management or called autonomous control.
◆ site operating personnel by way of visual showcase their own proposals, achievements, thoughts, and interact with leaders, colleagues and workmates.
So the visual management is a management of the management called visible management, or a glance to the openness and visual display. This management can run through them in various areas of management.

Visual management standards
Visual management can be divided into three levels:
Primary level: understand the state
Intermediate level: Who can judge the nondefective
Advanced level: Management (exception handling) are specified

Visually manage eight points
1, abnormal
Whoever is able to ascertain is good or bad (abnormal)
2, precision
Can quickly determine high-precision
3, the results
To determine the results will not vary
4 personnel (operator)
How morale operator? By the proposal suggests the number, quality circle participation rate and absenteeism measured by the number. How do you know that the production line, who is absent today, who will replace his work? These matters should be made in the field "visualization." How do you know that the skills of the operator? The site bulletin can post who have accepted what work training, who will need to re-impose other training. How do you know that the working methods of the operator is correct it? "Standardization" that is used to define the correct methods of work, such as: operating guidelines and operating standards covered book must be on display.
5, the machine
How do you know that the machine is producing good quality products? With automated and error-proofing devices: an error occurs, the machine can automatically and immediately stopped. When managers see a stop to the machine, we need to know why. Whether it is a planned shutdown? For die change settings and shut down? Due to quality problems and downtime? Because of mechanical failures and downtime? Downtime due to preventive maintenance? Lubricating oil level, the frequency of replacement and type of lubricating oil, must be labeled. Metal cover should be replaced by a transparent cover, in order to make the operator can see when the inside of the machine failure occurs.
6, the material
How do you know whether the material flow smoothly? How do you know whether the material beyond can get hold of the number, and whether the production of excessive quantity. The inventory will be accompanied by proof of at least the number of billboards Attached in the bulk of the product, as the instructions for the production of communication tools between before and after the process, you can make anomalies visible. Material storage location to be marked, and to indicate the inventory quantity level and item numbers. Can distinguish between different colors do to prevent mistakes. Can take advantage of the signal light or buzzer, highlight anomalies, such as feed shortages.
7
Supervisors how to know the the operator correct way? The standard operation procedures posted in each workstation clear. To indicate these standard books on the work order cycle time, safety precautions, quality check points, as well as the variation occurs, how to dispose of.
8, the measurement
How do you check that the process is normal operation? Must be clearly marked on the gauge out of the normal operating range. Temperature sensitive sticker to be affixed to the engine, to sense whether or not to produce the overheating phenomenon.
You know how to improve is completed, as well as whether or not to reach the target, is improving? How do you find the sophisticated design has been corrected already? Trend chart the scene where you want to hang out, the proposal suggests the number, production schedule, quality improvement goals, productivity improvements, die change time, as well as the reduction of industrial accidents.

Visual management purposes
Visual management purposes: as a basic means of visual signals, into the basic principles of public as much as possible to the requirements and intent of the managers so that we can all see it, in order to promote the visual management, self-management, self-control .

Visual characteristics of management
1, visual - everyone can see
Public - self-management, control
3 the ordinary - Staff, leadership, colleagues interact

Visual management requirements
(1) according to the actual needs of production, pragmatic, not to engage in showy, not to engage in the forms of things.
(2) to strict uniform standards, not to engage in a wide variety of things.
(3) to do simple, clear, and could be easily understood and easy to perform.
(4) To achieve eye-catching, clear, set in the place where everyone can see.
(5) Note that in the embodiment when thrifty act, do not form a new waste.
(6) To strictly enforce strict compliance with the violation of the regulations to be taken seriously, serious disposal, must not be a mere formality. To strengthen the visual management of the authority.

Visual management categories

1. Red card
Red card, suitable for 5S finishing, is to improve the basis of the starting point, is used to distinguish the the Central Africa necessities of day-to-day production activities, hanging red card activity, also known as the red card combat.

2. Kanban
5S Kanban combat items placed places the condition of said board. Where is the specific location? What quantity, who is responsible, or even to say, who is going to project management, and more importantly, people see at. Because 5S promoting it emphasizes transparency, openness, visual management has a precedent conditions, is to eliminate the clandestine operation.
Kanban is expressed in a process when you need the card where the number of certain materials, signal transmission tools. Site personnel by means of billboards, visual management, and use of the visual image, and a variety of colors suitable visual perception of information (tables, graphics, data, color) to organize, manage and improve the on-site production activities, and at the same time can be found at a glance abnormal state and management of the problem the way a management tool - "to manage with your eyes."
Kanban functionality
Production plan released: real-time production planning to the production site;
2 real-time production statistics: real-time collection of production site production;
3 production line notice anomalies: a lack of material, equipment failures and other anomalies, real-time communications staff;
4. Processing flow tracking: to track the process of exception handling, timely processing of the relevant personnel;
5. Productivity statistics: statistical production efficiency, and the efficiency of the production line statistical analysis;
Abnormal condition statistics: the statistics of the number of all kinds of exceptions and time, and to classify and analyze; [3]

3. Semaphore
At the production site, the first-line managers must know at any time, the operator or the machine is switched on in normal is in normal operation, signal lights when an exception occurs within the process for notification management tool. The semaphores of species:
Pronunciation semaphore
Apply to material request notification when the processes within the material runs out, or the bright lights of the supply and demand, the loudspeakers will immediately notice conveying personnel immediately and timely supply, in charge of almost all factories must be very understanding, signal lights must be ready to let it lights up, lights are also an important project in the Kanban.
Abnormal signal lights
Bad for the quality of products and operating abnormal abnormal occasions, usually installed in longer production of large factories, assembly lines.
General settings such as red or yellow two kinds of signal lights, by the staff to control when parts run out occurs, bad products and machinery failures and other anomalies, often affect the completion of production targets, this time by the staff immediately press the red buttons, and other red light, production managers and the director must stop the work of the hands, immediately went to the scene for investigation processing, exceptions are excluded, the managers can turn off the signal lights, and then continue to maintain a job and production.
Operation indicator
The examination showed that the state of operation of the equipment, the machine running, conversion or stop condition. Stop Shihai to display it stopped reasons.
Progress lights
It is more common, the assembly lines, in manual or semi-automatic production lines, each process interval is probably 1-2 minutes for assembling beat control, in order to ensure the production. Beat time interval with the length of a few minutes, it is used for the job. Operator itself, to hold their own progress, to prevent slow job. The progress lights are generally divided into 10 points. Steps and the sequence corresponding to the job, standardized procedures, it is also relatively high.

4. Operation Flow Chart
Operating flow chart itself is to describe the process focused and brief instructions of the job order book, also called step diagrams, used to guide production operations. In general the workshop, especially the process more complex workshop, Kanban management must have a flow chart of operation. The raw materials come in the first process may be the sign, the second step may point material, the third step may be converted, or conversion, this operation is called a flowchart.

5. Negative example
Negative example, generally it is a combination of existing objects and Plato said, is to allow field workers to understand, know his bad phenomenon and consequences. On people significant position, people see at normal use, or not illegal operations.

6. Reminded board
Alert plate, used to prevent the omission. Forgetfulness is human nature, it is impossible to eliminate, and only through self-management approach to maximize minimize missing or forgotten. For instance, some shop at the inlet and outlet, a board, today the number of products to be delivered where and when, or what products must when production is completed. Or leadership to inspect, at two o'clock in the afternoon, a check, or a certain leadership to inspect. These are collectively referred to as the Alert plate. Generally, the vertical axis represents time, the horizontal axis represents the date, and the vertical axis of the time interval is usually one hour, with eight hours a day to distinguish, every hour, that is, each time period is recorded correctly, bad or defective the case, allow operators to their own records. Reminded the board a month statistics once summarized in the monthly regular meeting, the comparison with the previous month, to see if there is progress, and determine the next month's catalog, which is another role to remind the board.

7. Regional lines
Regional lines is the area of ​​semi-finished products placed in places or channel, with lines to draw, mainly for finishing with the reorganization, the reason for the exception, the stop line failure, etc. for Kanban management.
8. Warning lines
Warning lines, is placed in the warehouse or other items at the color paint line used to indicate the maximum or minimum inventory coated on the ground for the Kanban combat.

9. Bulletin board
The bulletin board is a timely management of props, is the announcement, or a way to let everyone know, say two o'clock in the afternoon meeting, the notice board is writing these.
10. Production management board
Production management board, is to reveal the status of the production of the production line, the progress of said board, credited to the production performance, the equipment starting rate, the reason for the exception (stop line failure) for Kanban.

Visual management
1, the rules and regulations and work standards public
In order to maintain a unified organization and strict discipline to maintain continuity requirements of large-scale industrial production, proportion and rhythm, improve labor productivity, and achieve safe production and civilized production, all closely related to the workers at the site rules and regulations, standards, norms and etc., all need to be made public; directly related to the post workers, should be displayed on the posts, such as personal responsibility, operating procedures diagram, process card and should always maintain a complete, correct and clean.
2, chart of production task completion
The site is a collaborative work spaces, therefore, all we need to jointly complete the task should be made public. The plan targets to be regularly layers of decomposition, the implementation of the workshop, team, and individual, and a list posted on the wall; actual completion should schedule released and used as a plot method is seen of the completion of the planned targets problems and development trends, in order to promote the collective and the individual can, according to the quality and quantity on schedule to complete each task.
Set management combine to achieve standardization of the visual display of information
Set management, in order to eliminate the items to mix and misplacement, there must be complete and accurate information, including flag lines, signs and flags color. Therefore, visual management will naturally in this management integration with set-set-management requirements, using a clear, standardized information display symbols, the various regional channels, various aids (such as rack, tools should use the standard color box, station apparatus, living cabinet, etc.), shall not be arbitrarily applied.
4, the image of the means of production operations control intuitive, easy to use
In order to effectively carry out the production and job control, so that every aspect of production, each process can be produced in strict accordance with the period and quantity standards to eliminate overproduction, excess reserves, to be compatible with field work conditions, a simple and practical information conduction signal so after the procedure failed or stopped production due to other reasons, before the procedure is not required when the supply of products, the operator see the signal, timely stop inputs. For example, the "billboard" is a kind of play this role of information conduction means.
Liaison between the various production processes and the types of work, but also to set up a convenient and practical information conduction signal, in order to minimize lost work time and improve the continuity of production. For example, in the machinery and equipment installed red light in the pipeline configuration the work bit yuan failure display the event of downtime, you can send the signal, roving maintenance worker will see come timely repairs.
Production job control in addition to and quantity control, but also the quality and cost control, should also carry out visual management. For example, quality control, quality management point (control), there must be quality control charts, in order to clearly show the fluctuations in the quality, timely detection of abnormalities, and timely treatment. Workshop to make use of the blackboard form of defective products Statistics Daily made public, the waste of the day to be on display at the Showcase, analysis by the staff consultation to determine the improvement measures to prevent that from happening again.
5, the number of items stacked and transported standardization
Goods stacked and transported to standardization, can give full play to the strengths of the visual management. For example, a variety of items to implement the Fifth stacked ", all kinds of the digital equipment, including containers, boxes, plates, car, etc., should be dressed according to the number of the required standards, so, operation, handling and inspection personnel points convenient accurate.
6 field staff dress unified with the implementation of listing system
Site personnel dress not only played the role of labor protection, machine under production conditions, is formalized, standardized one. It can reflect the excellent literacy of the workforce, to show the difference between internal units, type of work and duties, which also has a psychological effect, engender a sense of belonging, sense of honor, responsible for organizing and commanding the production, but also create convenient conditions.
The listing system including units listed and personal wear signs. In accordance with the internal inspection and assessment system, to achieve corporate strategic mission and objectives of the evaluation of the project results to the image, intuitive way to unit listing advanced unit to the next level, able to motivate and spur lagging units to catch up. The personal wear signs, such as badges, chest marked, armbands, its role in the same dress similar. In addition, also in combination with evaluation, giving the aggressive pressure and motivation to reach urging them to promote the purpose of the work.
7, the standardization of color management
The color is a visual signal in the on-site management, visual management requirements of scientific, rational, clever use of color, and unified standardized management daub is not allowed. This is because the use of color is affected by a variety of factors:
(1) technical factors
Different colors have different physical indicators, such as wavelength, reflection coefficient, and so on. Glare device, multi-painted blue-gray, because of its moderate reflection coefficient, not overly irritating to the eyes. Danger signals and more with red, which is both a traditional habit, but also because of its penetrating power, distinctive signal sake.
(2) the physiological and psychological factors
The effect of different colors give people a different sense of weight, the sense of space, heating and cooling sensation, hard and soft feeling, clean flu emotion. For example, high temperature coloring workshop should be light blue, blue, green, white, cool tone, gives a refreshing and comfortable sense; opposite cryogenic workshop, suitable with red, orange, yellow and other warm, people feel warm. Heat treatment equipment and more leaden of cool colors, can play a role in reducing the "psychological temperature. Furniture factory all day to see the case of warm wood should be painted light green color, wood processing equipment can be alleviated by the operator to be surrounded by the warm filled with the sense of irritability. From a physiological point of view, for a long time by the clutter of one or several colors stimulate will generate visual fatigue, Therefore, it is necessary to pay attention to the color of the workers Lounge. Such as textile workers Lounge suitably warm; the smelting workers' lounge suitably cool. This will help to eliminate occupational fatigue.
(3) Social factors
Different countries, regions and ethnic groups, has a different color preferences. For example, the Chinese people generally like green, because it is a symbol of life, youth; Japanese think green is unlucky.
In short, the color contains rich content site who need color should be standardized requirements.

Application examples of visual management
(1) with a very significant color lines marked some of the highest and lowest points, allowing the operator to see at.
(2) is set in the channel corner of a mirror, in order to prevent a crash.
(3) install a green light indicates access, installed a red light means stop.
(4) with a small piece of paper hanging on the outlet display with air conditioning, exhaust fan is working.
(5) In the screw mother mark to determine a fixed relative position, the key parts.
(6) irradiated with light, in order to attract attention.
(7) with a sequence number, indicating that the checkpoint, and the steps carried out.
(8) with Schema, photos as operation instructions.
(9) placed shadow or groove tools disk, make all kinds of tools or spare parts placement and position are clear.
(10) using a standard form of billboards, stated above, the key considerations, suspension is quite obvious that the location, staff to operate correctly; chart to reflect the content of some of the work or the progress of the condition, easy to work understand the status of the work as a whole, at any time to confirm the location of their follow-up. [1]

Three stages of development
With the development of technology and the improvement of the level of social production, has three different modes of production: ① high-volume production methods; ② multiple varieties of a small amount of production methods; ③ flexible production methods.
In order to accommodate these different modes of production, visual management With the advanced management and network technology, there have been changes in the three stages of development.
First stage: less variety mass production (fixed type automation)
It is characterized by the ex post countermeasures, exceptions, individual two different management, as well as the emphasis on product quality, costs, recruiting service these individuals. The production of large quantities of this less variety, its disadvantage is no system, and afterwards come to sum up, matter, disposable, so it must utilize the visual management in the way, and even visual management have to be as simple as possible.
The second stage: the emphasis on multi-species and a small amount (flexible automation)
It has several features, systematic, focus, full participation, concentrated, such as logistics, original price three different management, its disadvantage is more complex, so the data can also handle slower, it must rely on human decision-making This is the second stage of visual management development.
The third stage: variant variable (flexible automation)
It has several features prior management, staff workflow management, cost management, the use of multimedia communication technology, international large-scale production, but there are several drawbacks is complicated, it must rely on the network to support and use of computer. Therefore, its approach is more complicated, for example, facial features you want to utilize, that you not only use your eyes to see, but also use your sense of touch, smell, do it.

Visual management role
(1) rapidly transmit information
The visual management role with a very simple sentence: is rapid and efficient transmission of information.
(2) to visualize potential problems and waste revealed
Visual management based on the physiological characteristics of the human, and make full use of the lights, signage, symbols, colors, etc. for giving a visual signal distinctive stimulate the nerve endings to transmit information quickly, to visualize the potential problems and waste revealed. Whether new employees, or the new operator, like other employees, to see that, you know, you understand where the problem lies. It is a good way, has a very unique role in the management of.
(3) Special emphasis is an objective, impartial, transparent
Favor of a unified identification, can improve morale, one mind to go to complete its work so that all employees. Reason to do work or play, the workplace, time constraints, to grasp the extent of the specific methods, these are management 5W2H.
(4) to promote the establishment of corporate culture and the formation of
Visual management, through the rationalization of the staff to recommend the show, good deeds, and a state-of-the-art recognition, public discussion boards, the caring warmth column, the direction of the enterprise purpose, vision and other health up content, all employees can form a very strong cohesion and solidarity, these are a good start for an excellent corporate culture.

Visual advantages of management
Visual management visual image, and help to improve the work efficiency.
Site management organization and command production in real terms in the post all kinds of information. Operation workers orderly production operations, is the course of action taken after receiving the information. Machine production conditions, production systems, high-speed operation, requires information transmission and processing fast and standards. If the information associated with each operation workers should be communicated directly by the managers, it is not difficult to imagine, with hundreds of thousands of workers in the production site, will be equipped with the number of management staff.
Visual management is simple to find the way to solve this problem. It tells us that, so far, the operation of workers to receive information on the most common sensory organs are the eyes, ears, and nerve endings, among which the most common vision.
Instrument, TV, lights, signage, charts, and other means of giving a visual signal. It features intuitive, easy to recognize and read and identify image, easy and convenient. Positions in the conditional, take full advantage of the visual signal display means, can transmit information quickly and accurately, without management scene commander can effectively organize production.
Visual management transparency, mutual supervision to facilitate on-site personnel, an incentive
Implementation of visual management, to be open to the various requirements of the production operations. Doing, how dry, how much work, what time dry, where dry and other issues at a glance, which is conducive to people with the tacit understanding, mutual supervision, violation of labor discipline is not easy to hide.
For example, according to the characteristics of the different workshops and the types of work require to wear different clothes and working cap, AWOL, string Kong chat is very easy to make under the watchful eyes, to promote their self-restraint, and gradually develop good habits. In another example, in some places of enterprises listing system of assessment, excellent, good, poor, the inferior four grades hang the signs of different colors; personal assessment, orderly and qualifiers to wear a different color armbands , unqualified unmarked. In this way, the visual management can play to encourage the advanced, spur the backward incentives.
In short, the large machines require both strict management, they need to train people to self-management, the habit of self-control and ability. The visual management for this provides an effective specific manner.
Visual management is conducive to good physiological and psychological effects
Improve production conditions and the environment, people tend to pay more attention to proceed from the material and technical, to the neglect of the physical, psychological, and social characteristics of the site personnel. For example, the control of machinery and equipment, and instruments of production processes, the meter must be installed for the material conditions that are indispensable to strengthen on-site management.
However, if you want to ask: what kind of shape the scale table is easy to recognize and read? The thickness ratio of the number of lines of numbers and letters was the best? Black on white is better than white on black? People generally consider a few. However, these are lower misreading rate, reduce the accident must seriously consider the physiological and psychological needs. Another example, everyone must admit workshop environment clean. However, the different workshops (such as machining workshop and heat treatment shop), whether its walls should be four white ground, or the use of a different color? What color is the most appropriate? Sort of color with the physical, psychological, and social characteristics of the people.
Visual management strengths is that it attaches to the integrated use of management science, physiology, psychology and sociology multidisciplinary research science to improve with on-site personnel visual perception related to various environmental factors, so that both comply with the requirements of modern technology, but also to adapt to people's physical and psychological characteristics, and this way, it will produce good physiological and psychological effects, mobilize and protect workers' enthusiasm for production.

Precautions

Not the person
When problems to assist the parties to come together to find the cause and make improvements, do not say these hurt feelings, such as:
◆ "How do you do that? You would like to not do it?"
◆ "I've never seen anything like the people you are so stupid."
◆ "I told you to do so, you are chosen to do so, is something wrong with it, you can figure it out."
These words are hurtful. Paying particular attention to the purpose of visual management is to make this enterprise, the team can be better. So is guilty of a mistake you for the things you want to solve the problem, they should be careful of things rather than people, because the language is a little careless, likely within the enterprise adverse impact. Some colleagues usual variety of rift, they should pay more attention to the process of advancing or audit. We just judged right or wrong thing, and not according to this person to determine the things he did right or wrong.

To standardize and institutionalize
◆ problems, a lot of heads will be accustomed to say, I am told, they said, they will pay attention to, over time or personnel in case of changes, the old problem again appeared, this is not standardized and institutionalized the result, so the problem to be grabbed hold trace in the end.
◆ this problem any employee, new to this sector or that they are new posts or require a standard book. How to use this machine, what time to sort out, straighten, sweep? These are the need to have standards.
◆ So to promote 5S education should be a continuous work. Ongoing work is to make enterprise all employees, whether old or new, should develop finishing, straighten, sweep, clean, cultivation habits. The purpose is to clean the standardization and institutionalization. So, is through education to boot.
Promote standardization and institutionalization should be noted that:
(1) you find the real reason?
② Is there no solution? Countermeasures are effective? Countermeasures have been written 5S guide book?
③ clear whether each operator?

Training and education alone can not solve the problem, but also to formulate a "foolproof" measures. For example:
◆ supermarket entrance forbidden to go out and install a single rotating rod.
◆ prohibit honking city, motor vehicle revoked speaker device.

Note bulletin, bulletin boards
Circulars, posters are told, is a commonly used method of visual management. Publicity method, the method involves face is very broad and can cause a lot of people's attention. So pay special attention.
Bulletin bulletin boards Notes:
◆ (1) to be posted in designated places, and it should not be posted everywhere.
◆ (2) to be a clear distinction between the scope of application, and indicate the emergency, or foreign, or staff communication ".
◆ (3) specify the effective period or updated at any time, the poster must meet certain specifications, and with the appropriate size, text and drawings.
◆ (4) in advance should measure its distance, hanging position, do not let out of the way or hinder the passage of the posters.
◆ (5) If the posters on the walls, must be firmly fixed, so as not to open the windows or pedestrians walked by the wind to the ground.
◆ (6) Notice of the content can be handwritten, but must be clean and easy to read, it is best to use a computer print text or drawings, place the height and location of such items must be carefully considered, so that people can see all of these badges content.

And improve product quality

The ultimate goal is to create a more customer satisfaction. Companies do a lot of management activities, is nothing more than the production of products to allow customers to accept products let the customer accepts, the key lies in the quality. If the quality is not good, the management is doing too much, to no avail. Therefore, visual management, total quality management to do first. Visual management is the process of doing a quality operation. The quality of the product process or service has to meet the sum of the express or implied need features or characteristics. Do the visual management to do Kanban is a quality control operation technology and activities are taken in order to meet quality requirements, hang red card or billboards or finishing or purpose are doing quality control . To get people convinced that our products or services to meet specific quality requirements must have system activities, this product is produced, and how I do, this is called quality assurance. If the machine is often bad habits of oil spills or personnel, or personnel of housekeeping standards the sweeping awareness is not high, will the products produced there is no quality assurance?

What is the quality policy? A company's top management, managers formally promulgated the aims and objectives of the total mass, to emphasize the quality of management, development and implementation of quality principles and management functions, 5S is a method of quality control functions, it is the company authority management functions means of a meet this quality management, 5S activity is one of the areas of the quality system, in order to implement the quality management responsibility, a clear organizational structure, so he stressed that the structure functions, procedures, resources and other aspects, these is a manifestation of the system.

Quality is the life, today's quality is tomorrow's market, the company's quality must be the overall goal, including the formation and maintenance of the credibility of the company's market quality, consumer demand-oriented the specialized design quality reasonable upper price products and good service requirements, so the company is no matter what, but the visual management in 5S inside it is a very institutionalized, obviously, through to read the cards, red cards manifested its final aim What is, is to achieve the best quality.

Expected results of management
◆ communicate and reveal the development work and fact, intuitive judgment out whether normal; without having to remember and easy to judge, and high accuracy.
◆ 2, can stimulate employee interest, and to promote the activities of its active participation in the operation.
◆ 3, to reach a consensus with the staff, the same idea and concept forward towards a common goal.
◆ 4, and take corrective action as a benchmark company full judgment. Regardless of who is to judge the results will not vary from person to person.
◆ 5, improving corporate image. Display the most powerful tools in an enterprise management level.
◆ 6, to strengthen enterprise physique. Whether standardized operations, unusual review investigated for the reasons, improvement activities, visual management of a number of tools can make the production automation realm abnormal automatically turn correction. World-renowned Toyota Production System, is the use of one of the best examples of visual management.

Basic requirements

Implementation of visual management, to prevent the formalism must enterprise reality, focus, and there are plans to gradually expand the basic requirements of this process should be done: a unified, simple, clear, practical and strict.
Unified, visual management to implement standardized to eliminate all kinds of messy phenomenon.
Simplicity, that a variety of visual display signals should be easy to understand at a glance.
Distinctive variety of visual display signals should be clear, appropriate location, field staff can see and see things clearly.
