Our Strategy Deployment module aligns with the traditional Hoshin goal deployment process and provides a standardized framework for driving lean improvement initiatives, communicating key project information, tracking actions, and reporting performance results. We provide visibility into a lean initiative’s status and impact on key performance indicators. Our lean initiative project tracking system generates web-based reports that are updated in real-time based on project progress. These reports are used for daily and weekly initiative reviews along with automated email alerts to trigger follow-up actions.

LeanDNA Strategy Deployment Workflow:

• Define and create lean improvement initiatives
• Provide flexible and automated web reporting tools to drive daily and weekly accountability
• Link performance metrics and strategic goals to each initiative to monitor progress and results
• Alert individuals through automatic emails of key task assignments and issues

On top of that, they wanted a system that was easy to use, low-cost, and low maintenance. So they turned to LeanDNA’s Lean Projects tool. In less than a year since launch, JR Automation has realized:

• Millions of dollars in project savings
• 100s of active and completed projects in LeanDNA’s systems
• A best practice framework for accountability, measurement, and communication
• Cross-site visibility for deploying and managing projects across 22 business areas in 8 different sites
