Six Sigma Tools - Poka Yoke

It was a Japanese manufacturing engineer named Shigeo Shingo who developed the concept that revolutionized the standard career in Japan. Initially referred to as “fool-proofing” and later modified to “mistake proofing” and “fail to save” so workers weren’t offended, poka-yoke (pronounced “poh-Koh you-kay”) interprets into English as to keep away from (yoke RU) inadvertent errors (poka). The result's an enterprise that wastes much less vitality, time and assets doing issues improper sooner or later.
