TALENT
Underutilizing the skills and abilities of employees prevents organizations from achieving full operational potential. This waste includes failing to capture innovative ideas or improvements from employees. Floor signs that encourage feedback and suggestions can help tap into the underutilized talent, fostering a more inclusive and innovative workplace culture.
5. TRANSPORTATION
Unnecessary movement of products or materials adds no value and increases the risk of damage and delays. Efficient plant layout, guided by clear floor markings, can significantly reduce unnecessary transportation, ensuring a smoother and faster flow of materials.
6. INVENTORY
Excess inventory requires additional storage space and can lead to increased handling costs and degraded product quality. Using floor tape to mark designated storage areas can help manage inventory levels more effectively, making it easier to spot excess or shortages.
7. MOTION
Excessive motion, such as walking or moving materials over long distances, wastes time and energy. Floor markings can optimize the physical layout of a workspace, minimizing unnecessary motion and improving worker ergonomics.
