Check sheet
Check sheets simplify consistent data collection, especially for counting defect types or tracking events over time.
Data captured feeds downstream SPC analysis and Pareto charts.
Designing an effective check sheet
The form should align with the inspection objective, providing clear categories, units, and timeframes for data collection.
Visual cues like tally marks or icons make it easy for operators to record findings quickly.
Using check sheets in the field
Inspectors capture data at the source, whether that’s counting cosmetic defects, tracking downtime causes, or noting equipment checks.
Leaders often leverage check sheets during Gemba walk observations to spot trends.
