Composable Lean App Suite

*This suite offers a comprehensive set of applications specifically designed to enhance your shopfloor operations. *

Connected Tables

The Tables that you will use throughout this app suite will be used and connected throughout your various applications. This allows you to have an easier user experience as well as a network of tables that can be used with development of future applications.
Learn more about how the tables will minimize redundancy and maximize compatibility through using a using a common data model.

Get familiar with the common tulip tables used throughout the cMES.

Configure Apps

App Suite contains 1 app suite and 3 applications.

Kamishibai App Suite

Quality audit methods such as Kamishibai can be valuable for operations personnel to routinely audit locations for 5S standards, but the manual management of quality audit cards can be cumbersome and not scalable. Using a digital system of Tulip apps streamlines adoption and value creation

The suite contains two applications:

1. Kamishibai Quality Audit App for executing quality audits with Kamishibai cards
2. Kamishibai Card Management for creating and managing Kamishibai cards and Locations.

The application utilizes the Location, Kamishibai Cards tables. It uses the Location table to determine audit locations. The Kamishibai Cards table is used to store and maintain kamishibai cards.

5S Checklist

The 5S application is built in order to enable users to conduct a 5S audit as well as store and analyze the data. It can be easily modified to more accurately reflect the areas of your operation that need to be routinely audited.

Prior to initiating the app, the initial step involves adding all the locations as static value data sources to a Select a location Variable on the 5S checklist Step and the ‘Dashboard' step.

The following Tables are used in the 5S Checklist app:
Inspection Results - Stores the results of 5S inspection steps.
Defects - Stores the information entered about the non-conformance.

5S Radar Chart Widget

This widget can be used at the end of the audit to display the results of a 5S or in a dashboard app for an area along side other analysis.

Lean Dashboard

The purpose of this app is to help users hold SQDC meetings with just one tool. We've taken out the 'Cost' part of the meeting and added in 'Inventory' and 'Productivity'.

To configure the app, first you have to set target numbers for each category: safety, quality, delivery, inventory, productivity. These numbers were set randomly in this app. You also have to adjust the default values of each target Variable and update the Analytics: adding your numbers at the reference lines within the analytics.
The app saves the current date and time as Selected Date and Today's Date. On the Status step, you can modify Selected Date. However, steps like Safety, Inventory, etc., use Today's Date, which can't be changed.

The app utilizes two Tables: Performance Metrics and Actions. The Action table is implemented to log different actions, whereas the Performance Metrics table assists in logging the daily meeting results.
