Highlights
The A3 is the tool that keeps a problem-solving effort honest — the whole story on a single page, from what's wrong all the way to proof that you fixed it. This template lays out the classic Plan-Do-Check-Act flow down the left edge, with six numbered boxes you fill in as the project moves.
The layout
PLAN — Box 1 (Issue / Problem + current-state metrics), Box 2 (Probable Root Cause), Box 3 (Countermeasures, a living document), and a Risk Analysis panel
DO — work the countermeasures
CHECK — Box 4 (Expected Outcome, measurable to your current-state metrics) vs. Box 5 (Actual Outcome — don't close until the data is in)
ACT — Box 6 (Lessons Learned, logged into continuous improvement)
Each box has its own status indicator, so anyone can see at a glance how far along the A3 is.
What's inside (3 tabs)
A3 Template — the blank report, every box a fillable cell with a prompt for what belongs there
A3 Example — a real adhesive-fixture project: from hand-applied tape at 100 parts/hour to a repeatable fixture at 120 parts/hour, complaints eliminated
A3 Instructions — what goes in every box, in plain language
