Build your production job traveller.

How to build your production job traveller

1. 1

   Describe the job

   Keep each production job's route, required inputs and operation handoffs together.

2. 2

   Review the first version

   Choose how the production planner records the job and how the engineering reviewer reviews the next step.

3. 3

   Refine the views

   Ask First to adjust the fields and views for the people who will use the app.

4. 4

   Test before sharing

   Walk through the process with a sample record and check who owns the next action.

What to include in your production job traveller

• Keep the job in context

  Keep job, route stage, operator, required input, completion evidence and hold together so the next person can understand the request or record.

• When the next step needs a decision

  A job reaches final assembly while its coating stage is still incomplete. Expose the missing stage and keep final completion on hold.

• Keep hold visible

  Keep the next operation on hold until the missing input is accepted.

• Choose what each person needs

  Give the production planner a working view and the engineering reviewer a review view. Keep job and route stage attached to the decision as the work moves between them.
