What it brings your process team

MAKI GAMI keeps the office process on a digital, lasting and measurable map instead of paper rolls and sticky notes; the team talks while looking at the same picture.

Makigami

In the office, it is the waiting that grows, not the work

  • A request waits days for an approval, a signature or another department; no one sees where it waits.
  • Work changes hands between departments again and again, and incomplete forms come back.
  • The same data is keyed into several systems by hand; unnecessary approval layers stretch the process.
  • The process drawn on the wall in the workshop turns into a photo and is lost once the workshop ends.
01

Swimlane grid

Steps run left to right, actors in lanes; drag a card to change the owner, drag a header to change the order.

02

Analysis under every step

Document / system, processing and waiting time, problem and idea bands; problems are tagged with one of 8 office wastes.

03

Metrics on their own

PCE, lead time, total waiting and the number of handoffs are recalculated with every change.

04

The team works at the same time

Participants edit the same map from their own devices; changes reach everyone within seconds, with who changed what. Presentation Mode for the projector.

05

Current and future state

The future state starts with one click from a copy of the current state and is measured with the same metrics; studies are kept as revisions.

06

AI waste analysis

grupas.ai brings out bottlenecks, waste findings, improvement recommendations and quick wins, and suggests a PCE target.

07

Share-ready outputs

The map downloads as a landscape PDF with lanes, bands and metrics; the analysis report as PDF or Markdown.

08

Backed by training and consulting

MAKI GAMI was built on Grupas's lean office training and consulting experience. The guide explains the method, the 8 office wastes and the workshop steps; it runs in the browser with nothing to install.
