Capture & Record

Gemba Walk

Structured on-site observations with digital capture

Overview

Gemba Walk digitises the Lean practice of going to where the work happens. Use it on a tablet or phone while walking the production floor, warehouse, or office. Capture observations, photos, and timing data as you move through the process, and the system assembles them into a value stream map. Built-in checklists ensure you observe the right things — flow, waste, safety, and 5S conditions.
