A Gemba Board is a powerful visual management tool used in Lean and continuous improvement environments to make real-time work visible, actionable, and aligned with organisational goals. By displaying KPIs, problems, corrective actions, targets, and ownership in one central place, a gemba board enables teams to quickly understand current conditions and respond effectively. Key Benefits: It improves transparency, strengthens communication between frontline teams and management, and accelerates problem identification through visual cues and real-time updates. Teams can immediately see deviations from targets, track ongoing improvement initiatives, and reinforce accountability. Role in Continuous Improvement: Used during daily huddles and Gemba walks, a gemba board supports structured problem-solving methods such as PDCA, 5 Whys, and root cause analysis, ensuring issues are addressed at the source. From Physical to Digital: While traditional boards rely on whiteboards and manual updates, modern digital solutions make the gemba board more dynamic, accessible, and data-driven. This is where LTS Data Point stands out-by digitising Gemba Boards and connecting live KPIs, trends, actions, and problem-solving workflows in one platform, LTS Data Point helps organisations identify problems up to 3x faster and drive real-time operational excellence across teams.
