“…Manufacturers customize VB layouts using diverse design principles to align with shop-floor tasks (Few, 2006). This results in various VB types, like PM VBs for clear data communication (Parry & Turner, 2006) and CI VBs with adaptable interfaces for manual drawings (Clausen, 2023). Current shop-floor PM VBs and CI VBs are analog media-based, entailing paper strips, charts, tokens, and whiteboards, to handle tasks (Bateman, 2020;Beynon-Davies & Lederman, 2017;Clausen et al, 2020).…”

“…However, the ongoing digital transition of manufacturing is reshaping how to handle shop-floor tasks. Consequently, OM researchers have proposed that the digital transition of VBs offers unparalleled opportunities for enhancing transparency regarding the status of manufacturing shop floors (Bateman, 2020;Clausen, 2023;Meissner et al, 2020;Torres et al, 2019). In pursuit of this objective, a stream of researchers has showcased the practicality of employing digital VBs on the shop floor.…”

“…In a study of 16 international manufacturing industries, Clausen (2023) suggested that the main hurdle for the digital transition of VBs is inappropriate enterprise architectures in terms of capturing data and accessing real-time data. Despite that, practitioners are devising easily installable solutions utilizing visualization software like Microsoft Power BI, despite knowing that these solutions fall short in terms of providing fit in handling shop-floor tasks (Clausen, 2023). OM researchers have underscored the significance of visualization software, such as Tableau, Infogram, and Microsoft Power BI, for introducing novel opportunities and thereby providing new VB functionalities (Basole, 2019;Mortenson et al, 2015).…”

“…The digital transition of visualization boards (VBs) offers unprecedented transparency for monitoring manufacturing shop-floor activities in the context of smart manufacturing (Torres et al, 2019). As technological devices, VBs provide functionalities tailored to fit shop-floor tasks (Bateman et al, 2016;Bendoly, 2016;Clausen, 2023;Fullerton et al, 2014). With the potential for novel functionalities to arise due to this digital transition (Mourtzis et al, 2022) and the growing importance of data in task handling (Jwo et al, 2021), an empirical investigation into the functionalities of both current and emerging VBs for shop-floor tasks becomes essential.…”

The increased digitalization of shop floors has provided unprecedented opportunities for real‐time sharing of process and resource details. Visualization boards (VBs), which provide ubiquitous technology‐enabled renderings of such details, salient to a local shop‐floor setting, have the potential to play a significant role in this regard. Critical to the effectiveness of this role is the fit between VB design and shop‐floor needs. In our study, we apply task‐technology‐fit theory in case examinations focused on identifying mismatch, implications of mismatch, and putative best practices in designs for future interventions. Our assessment capitalizes on both core operations management design principles as well as technology management design principles. We develop grounded propositions regarding guidelines that should be applied in future VB designs and deployments.

A data-oriented shopfloor management in the production context: a systematic literature review

Data not only plays an essential role in traditional shopfloor management, but it is also becoming even more important in Industry 4.0, particularly due to the increasing possibilities offered by new digital and data technologies and developments. In this context, the literature often refers to digital shopfloor management, the next generation shopfloor or other evolutionary synonyms. This raises the question of how to differentiate the content of data-oriented shopfloor management from digital shopfloor management. This paper discusses the state of the art — in terms of both data and digital perspectives — using a systematic literature review. Due to the complexity of the topic, three different levels of consideration — technology, organisation and people — are examined and discussed. Existing conceptual approaches are analysed in terms of conclusions and research gaps. It was found that the area of technology, including dedicated applications, is very well represented and researched in the literature. In comparison, there are larger research gaps in the other areas of organisation and people, which could be a possible reason for the lack of implementation of digital shopfloor management in practice. There is also a lack of holistic approaches that consider all three levels simultaneously and provide an overarching concept of maturity as a guideline, as well as taking into account the increasing trend towards value stream orientation. Apart from the research gaps, this paper could also define the term data-oriented shopfloor management and distinguish it from digital shopfloor management.
