Why Record Video?
Lean transformations rely heavily on process observation
- Therefore they require a deep understanding of the details
- “Time and motion type” studies are critical elements
- Traditional methods use video cameras & spreadsheets
As a Result
They are extremely time consuming
leanEdit is 60%
Faster than traditional methods
Traditional Approach to Video Tape Analysis
Video the process or the operator
Playback video on a TV or computer
Manually enter the time for each step while playing back video
Issues With Traditional Video Analysis
- The engineer must keep track of separate video & analysis files
- Locating video clip end-points for replay is difficult & time consuming
- Continuous toggling between videos & spreadsheets
- Storage/retrieval of media is cumbersome
- Limited ability for collaborative analysis and sharing of best practices
- Manual entry & calculations using spreadsheets is time consuming and leads to errors
The leanEdit Process
Video the process or the operator using a smart device and then upload the video into leanEdit.

Lean Analysis Done Lean
“Our site has recently used the LeanEdit software to analyze cleaning choreography and setup activities for individual work-centers in manufacturing as well as our packaging lines. The software has reduced our analysis time by greater than 60% and is yielding better analysis.
In addition, to these traditional uses, we have recently identified that there is a training application that we will be trialing. We are in the process of executing Factory Acceptance Tests for a new packaging line. During the Factory Acceptance Tests our Process Engineers will be filming the change-over at the vendor, editing the video to show only the ideal execution and then using the output as a training video for operators so they are familiar with the equipment and change-over activities. We hope this will reduce our go –live ramp up.”
