Almost Unbelievable Client Results

I would highly recommend Erica and Poka-Yoke Solutions to anyone! Their approach is customizable and scalable based upon your needs.
Our company has been going steadily the last 5-6 years, and we were always lacking in getting our processes documented. Not only did they help with this, but they also jumped in with both feet, speaking to a number of our team members to really get familiarized with our specialized processes and service offerings.
With all of this, the biggest reason I would recommend working with Poka-Yoke is their ability to identify and navigate some of the pain points within change management – this was our biggest hurdle over the years, and they got us over the hump in this regard.
I know where we were as a company, and I know where we are now, but I don’t know how we could have gotten there without Erica, Kristen, and all the team there at Poka-Yoke!

"Initially, I hesitated to engage with Poka-Yoke Solutions because I wasn't familiar with the breadth of services they offered. However, deciding to work with them turned out to be a pivotal moment for our company. What stands out the most about Poka-Yoke is their exceptional staff; they are not only knowledgeable and resourceful but also incredibly focused on client needs.
Since partnering with Poka-Yoke, we've discovered an extensive range of services and a rich library of content specifically tailored for our projects with Prospect 14 and Ampliform. They have essentially acted as an extended arm to our HR department, streamlining the onboarding process for new hires, aiding in continuous process improvements, and providing a robust repository for our training content.
I absolutely recommend Poka-Yoke Solutions to any organization looking to enhance their operational efficiencies. Their team is a pleasure to work with—always professional and exceedingly competent. Working with them has not just met but exceeded our expectations

I would highly recommend Erica and the whole Poka-Yoke team. Finally having our processes formalized and documented in Trainual is going to be a great help to us for all of the obvious reasons.
In addition to that, I think the exercise that Erica's team took us through of getting everything documented has been really helpful for us as a company. Asking people to explain why they do things has opened up a lot of opportunities for people to question what they do and how it can be improved. It has brought a more process oriented mindset to tasks that may have otherwise been on autopilot, and it has been a great way to make team members feel like their opinions and work are valuable.
Erica's team guided us through this entire process from beginning to end and I'm confident in saying that it would not have been nearly as successful without them.
