Before you start

Every session starts at sign-in

One login, role-based access to everything that follows

Who Every user Where /login
  1. Sign in with your Employee Code and password.
  2. What you can see and do next — Walk Type setup, scheduling, raising observations, verifying, approving actions — depends entirely on your assigned role (Admin, Area Owner, or Operator).
  3. From here, the GEMBA menu takes you straight to the new Dashboard — see next.

The GEMBA Dashboard

One home screen for the whole module — added this cycle

Who Admin & Area Owner (GEMBA1 / GEMBA2) Where Sidebar → GEMBA/gemba_dash
  1. Clicking GEMBA in the sidebar now opens straight into the dashboard — no more digging through a submenu first.
  2. Live counts at a glance: how many walks are Initiated, still Verified/Open, or fully Finalized — plus how many Corrective Actions are Open vs Closed.
  3. Every other GEMBA screen — Walk Type, Schedule, Observations, and all three reports — is one click away from the panel on the left.
  4. Admins see figures for the whole plant; everyone else sees just their own work.
Mirrors the same dashboard pattern already used for the Safety module, so the experience is consistent across the platform.

Define the Walk Type

What kind of Gemba walk this is, plus its checklist

Who Admin (GEMBA1) Where Dashboard → Gemba Walk Type
  1. Walk types already defined — Safety Walk, Productivity Walk, Maintenance Walk — appear in the list.
  2. Click New Gemba Walk Type, name it, and add its checklist questions in the same form.
  3. Keep it Active so it shows up in both scheduling and the observation form. Save.
Worked example: "Housekeeping Walk," with two checklist questions — "5S standard maintained" and "Walkway kept clear."

One screen, six steps

Everything from here happens inside this one form

Verify, Priority, Corrective & Preventive Action, Target Date, Close, Finalize

  1. Once an observation is saved, its edit form becomes the single place where the rest of the lifecycle plays out.
  2. No separate screens to hunt for — Admins, Area Owners, and Responsible Persons all work from this same view, each seeing only the actions their role allows.
  3. The next several slides walk through exactly what happens inside it, in order.

☰  Gemba ObservationAdmin
Walk details, checklist, severity/probability/priority, and Corrective Action table — all in one form

Inside the form

The admin verifies it

Automatic on first admin save — there's no separate "Verify" button

Who Admin (GEMBA1) Where Gemba Observations → that row's Edit
  1. The admin opens the new entry and checks the details.
  2. The moment the admin saves it for the first time, status becomes Verified — saving it is what verifies it.
  3. This is also where Severity and Probability get set — the next slide.
Initiated Verified

Flips the moment an Admin's first save lands on the record.

5
Inside the form

Severity + Probability → Priority

Risk scoring — the system multiplies the two automatically

Who Area Owner or Admin only Where Same edit form
  1. Pick Severity (First Aid → Catastrophic Accident) and Probability (Impossible → Most Likely).
  2. The system multiplies the two and shows Priority — Low, Medium, or High — automatically. Read-only, no guessing.
Severity × Probability = Priority band
1 – 4 Low
5 – 12 Medium
15 – 25 High

e.g. Minor Accident (2) × Conceivable (3) = 6 → Medium

6
Fixing it

Add the Corrective Action

What needs to be fixed, and who will fix it

Who Area Owner / Admin / Observer Where Same form, "Corrective Action Details" section
  1. Click Add Corrective Action, select the Responsible Person — their email/department fill in automatically.
  2. Describe the fix (200 characters max). Save — numbered automatically, e.g. GW00010 – CA01.
  3. One walk can have several corrective actions, as many as there are things to fix.
Add Corrective Action
New · Added this cycle

Add a Preventive Action

Stop it from recurring, not just fixing it this once

Who Area Owner / Admin Where On each Corrective Action row → Preventive button
  1. Corrective Actions fix this occurrence. Preventive Actions ask: what stops it happening again?
  2. Click Preventive on any corrective action row — opens a form for the root cause, the preventive action itself, and a Responsible Person.
  3. Numbered against the correction it belongs to, e.g. GW00010 – CA01 – PA01. A correction can have more than one preventive action.
  4. Same screen lists every preventive action already logged against that correction, with edit/delete.
Mirrors the Corrective/Preventive Action pattern already used in the Safety module (suab_master) — now available in GEMBA too.

Deadline

Set the Target Date

With an email-based extension path if it can't be met

Who The Responsible Person on the CAPA Where Inside that CAPA row
  1. Click Set Target Date on your row — only shows on rows assigned to you without a date yet.
  2. Enter the date and an optional remark. Can't make it? Send an extension request with a reason.
  3. The admin grants the extension in-app, or via a link in the notification email.

Done, pending review

Close it once the work is done

The Responsible Person marks their own action done

Who The Responsible Person Where That CAPA row's Action button
  1. Once the fix is made, click Close and add a remark describing what was done.
Closing isn't the same as Finalized — the admin still has to confirm it. The Close button only appears once a target date is set and the row isn't already closed.
Close confirmation

Quality gate

Admin Finalizes it — or Reopens it

The check on whether the closed action actually held up

Who Admin (or an authorized role) Where That CAPA row's Action button
  1. Work done properly? Click Finalize — permanently closed.
  2. Not done properly? Click Reopen with a reason — goes back to "Pending," Responsible Person closes it again.
Finalize or Reopen

The whole walk closes itself

The moment every CAPA row under a walk is Finalized, the walk's own status automatically becomes Finalized — no separate button to click. The system checks this, not you.
