Sound familiar?
Training on the plant floor is hard to get right
SOPs nobody reads
Procedures live in long documents that are hard to use at the line.
Know-how walking out the door

New leads, no playbook
Strong operators get promoted to lead or supervisor with little preparation for leading people.
Where to start
The First Week Kit
Everything a new hire needs for one production role, built with your best operator as the expert.
- A short onboarding workbook for the role
- Five to eight visual job aids for the line, with photos and numbered steps
- A one-page guide for the trainer or lead who shows new hires the ropes
- Files ready for print, tablets or your LMS
Fixed price, quoted up front, delivered in about three to four weeks. If you use community college customized training, the kit fits right alongside it and gives new hires something to keep at their station.
