What is a Gemba Walk?

“Gemba” means “actual place” in Japanese. This term has given rise to an industrial procedure that involves having supervisors walk around and observe workers perform their tasks, ask questions, and identify relevant issues. This procedure explores opportunities for continuous improvement and is usually executed by leaders so they can evaluate the differences between what has been planned and what is actually being done.

How is the Gemba Walk implemented?

There are 7 steps to apply a successful Gemba Walk: define a theme, prepare the team, focus on the process, be at the right place where the value is, record the observation, be accompanied, and follow up.

One of the main focuses of this procedure is to understand what the team responsible for executing the process has to say about it. That is why hearing from field workers directly is extremely relevant.

Digital Checklists

The Gemba Walk procedure  can be digitized into a digital checklist. As a result, this will simplify workers’ execution. In practical terms, this means workers can access information in real time on their mobile devices. These checklists can help to improve mobility on shop floors.

Visual Evidence

Process optimization is possible by collecting visual evidence during the observation to facilitate the follow-up analysis. This can include adding videos and photos to make the observation output more complete and credible.
