What is Mistake Proofing and how will it help my
workplace?
Poka Yoke is the Japanese name for Mistake Proofing.
Mistake proofing ensures that any chance of error is
eliminated by way of process or product design.
Mistake proofed processes eliminate costly investments
in detecting potential quality problems by eliminating
the chance of error entirely, instead of implementing
costly checks and tests after the error may have occurred.
This technique teaches your teams how to:
Identify potential risks within your process
Implement system that will mistake proof your process
from costly quality errors
Develop a clear understanding of the optimum way
to complete tasks
Make processes more transparent
Reduce processing effort
Improve Quality
Eliminate Quality risk
Designing out risks,
Not fixing the faults!
