Kanban Card Templates
Kanban is one tool within the just in time production system. Kanban is used to connect information flow to the necessary action or production of a customer need. The Kanban system works off of the pull of the customer creating a more demand driven enterprise which results in lower inventory levels, less waiting and better control of production amounts. The Japanese word loosely translated means card, billboard or sign but often times other sensory notifications such as empty spaces, cones or lights are used to notify a supplier of a customer need.

Tollgate Template
Six sigma and many other forms of project management use "tollgates" to check the progress of projects in relation to their objectives. When an assigned individual approves that the team has successfully completed one stage of the project, the team then can "pass" on to the next stage of the project or initiative. If the team does not successfully complete a stage they can not "pass" on to the next phase.
Example:
In six sigma the DMAIC methodology is used. Team members may establish toll gates between the Define, Measure, Analyze, Improve and Control phases of the methodology. At each of these points the team must receive approval before moving on.

Control Plan
The control plan is a tool used in the control phase of the DMAIC method. The tool is used for documenting the functional elements of quality control that are to be implemented in order to ensure that quality standards are met for a particular product, process, project or service. The intent of the control plan is to formalize and document the system of control that will be utilized in such a way that everyone can understand, while minimizing and controlling variation in the process, product or service.
