KAIZEN TRACKER / PRODUCT
Kaizen Tracker
The most comprehensive enterprise solution for continuous improvement management.
Kaizen Tracker isn’t just “another” software program in your company. We’ve developed a solution that isn’t a startup. Nor is it the result of European Union funding or other projects. It is the result of many years of experience by experts in digital solution development and the requirements of professionals working in the fields of Lean and Kaizen.
We have come together to develop a solution that best aligns with the philosophy and methods of continuous improvement. It is developed entirely in-house, using our own resources and following a roadmap that also incorporates your vision and requirements.
If you need to systematically and professionally manage all processes focused on continuous improvement, you’ll find everything you need in our solution. A comprehensive set of tools, processes, and techniques that will enable you to effectively and easily manage every improvement proposal submitted, ensuring that its implementation results in tangible benefits and value for your company.

Improve systematically and professionally.
Each step addresses a specific problem encountered in real-world operations—from identifying an idea through the SG4/SG5 approval processes and managing responsibilities, all the way to archiving successful projects in the idea library.

Plan
Identifying improvements and creating a project card.
Anyone can submit a proposal—via a kiosk, computer, or mobile device. The system automatically creates a project card from it, assigns a number, and enters it into the approval workflow.

Managing team responsibilities and workload.
Each proposal is automatically assigned a person in charge. The leader decides how the proposal will be implemented—directly, through delegation, or through a multi-level kaizen team.

Implementation of a project with a timer.
Once approved, the project will enter the implementation phase. The central timer tracks the project’s total duration and uses different colors to indicate whether the project is on schedule or behind schedule in terms of start, implementation, or completion.

Verification of savings and standardization.
After implementation, actual savings—both hard savings and cost avoidance—are measured. The dashboard compares estimated versus actual savings and categorizes projects by pillars, approaches, and methods (SAF, WO, PD).

— /Why Kaizen Tracker
The difference isn't in enthusiasm.
It's in the system.
Every company wants to improve. The difference between improvements that fizzle out after a year and those that management continues to fund lies in whether the results can be demonstrated.
Without a system
Improvements in the tables
Ideas jotted down in a notebook, savings tracked in Excel, approvals sent via email. It works—until someone asks to see the numbers.
→ The operator's idea isn't recorded anywhere and just gets forgotten
→ Everyone calculates savings using a different method
→ Investments and savings are in two different sets
→ One person is in charge of the schedule—and that person is on vacation
→ The same problem is being addressed all over again at a different workplace a year later
With KAIZEN TRACKER
Improvement as a Process
A single workflow from the initial proposal to verified savings in the accounting records. Each step has an owner, a deadline, and a reference number, and someone has signed off on it.
→ Anyone can submit a report—from a cell phone, a kiosk, or using an RFID card
→ Stage gates SG1–SG5 with approval and timelines
→ Savings calculated using a single methodology, validated by the controlling department
→ Automatic notifications and rescheduling of overdue appointments
→ Solution Database — a ready-made procedure instead of repeated analysis
