What's baked into the app
- A practitioner's question order
The walkthrough follows the same sequence a senior improvement lead uses on day one of an engagement, nothing important skipped, nothing irrelevant asked.
- The 10 Laws of diagnosis
The stated problem is a hypothesis, not the answer. Listen before challenging. Find the waste before adding people. Never automate an unstable process. These sit under every recommendation.
- The 8 Wastes (TIMWOODS) tagging
Every finding is classified against Transport, Inventory, Motion, Waiting, Overproduction, Overprocessing, Defects and Skills, so recommendations are defensible, not opinions.
- BPMN 2.0 process maps
Current-state maps use standard notation, structured by role, with handoffs, waits and systems visible, so what you take to your team is credible.
- The Voice of the Customer question bank
Owner, team-member and customer perspectives are all elicited, because an internally efficient process that produces a poor customer experience is a broken process.
- Opinionated ranking
Every improvement worth making is scored on impact, effort, cost and severity, ranked so the top priorities come first, and turned into a sequenced plan, the way an experienced practitioner would. No 40-page deck. No hedged-everything summary.
