Best Practice Management: Stop reinventing the wheel. Start scaling your best ideas.

Best practice management is capturing a proven way of working, approving it as a standard, sharing it with every site that can use it and checking that it was adopted. In lean plants this sideways sharing is called yokoten. LeanSuite runs it in four steps: capture, validate, share and track adoption.

A best practice moves through phases and approval, then is shared with other plants. Each plant marks it as applicable, implemented or not applicable with a reason, and adoption and benefit reports show the result.

Adoption tracking shows the status of each shared practice at every facility, so corporate leaders can see which sites have implemented it, which say it does not apply and why, and which need support.

Any process or standard: SOPs, safety protocols, maintenance techniques, Kaizen results, quality control methods and cost-saving measures.

A successful Kaizen or employee idea becomes a best practice, which can then become a course in the Learning Management module or a standard checklist in Lean Creator.
