What do you like best about Redzone?
Redzone is a great tool for keeping our business connected to the truest source of information: the people working directly on the floor. Having used other systems before, I noticed that while they could track OEE, they often fell short when it came to capturing valuable feedback from operators, mechanics, technicians, and everyone else on the team. With Redzone, I see team members actively using the platform to share details (whether through chats, pictures, or videos) which has proven incredibly helpful, especially when different shifts or leaders are investigating recurring issues. It’s great to have all this information centralized, and everything gets recorded in each run report for easy access.
When we kicked off targeted coaching at the start of this year, our site re-launched the huddles with help of our coach, Zach Thompson. Since then, there’s been a noticeable positive trend, not just more forums being held, but also a surge in actions and new ideas that are now being passed along to management forums for follow-up. It’s really important to give the employees the opportunity to feel seen and heard, and their contributions making a tangible impact, and Redzone is a great tool to do so.
The other part on Redzone that is been really helpful is the Kaizen forums, we have used these to conduct Root Cause Analysis, utilize the Fishbone tool and having the ability to manage all the action items and follow ups in one place is great and made our improvement efforts much more organize and effective.
