Five loss buckets, one answer: how many of today's 480 minutes actually made product, and where the biggest hidden loss sits.

03Scheduling

Six-Gate Readiness Check

List tomorrow's jobs and tap each gate: pass, fail or unknown. A job is executable only when all six gates pass. Anything else is at risk, however good the schedule looks.

Answer up to seven yes/no questions about one stop. The wizard names the kind of loss, who owns it and what usually fixes it. Then re-sort a whole day's “downtime”.
