Frequently asked questions
Yes. Every completed inspection in Lumiform generates a structured report that you can filter, export, and analyze after the Gemba Walk. The data doesn’t sit in a PDF and disappear. Responses feed into the analytics dashboard, where you can review results by step, location, or time period. Completed forms stay accessible in the desktop interface, and you can export results for further use. What your consultants document in the field becomes a structured data set you can act on in a controlling workshop context.
Each consultant operates through the same Lumiform account structure, with forms assigned to individual users or groups. You can deploy the same Gemba Walk template across all client sites without rebuilding it each time. The administration section lets you manage users, assign roles, and control which templates each consultant accesses. Results from all sites feed into one analytics view, so you can compare findings across engagements. The mobile app works on iOS and Android, online or offline, which covers production floor conditions where connectivity is unreliable.
Yes. Lumiform integrates directly with Power BI. Audit data syncs daily, so the measures and actions generated from your Gemba Walks become available in Power BI for metric tracking and action follow-up. This integration is available as an add-on on the Professional plan or included in the Enterprise plan. For consultants who want to build dashboards around Gemba Walk outputs and track progress over time, this is a direct connection between what gets documented in the field and the metrics layer where you manage improvement work.
Lumiform sends notifications when tasks become overdue. Supervisors receive alerts at the point an action passes its due date, not just advance reminders. You can configure notification preferences at the user level, so the right person gets alerted for the right tasks. In a Gemba Walk context, where short-term optimization measures need to be followed up quickly, this means a supervisor knows immediately when an assigned action has not been completed on time, without having to check the dashboard manually.
In Lumiform’s form builder, you can attach predefined actions to specific answer options using conditional logic. If a consultant answers “no” to a step during the Gemba Walk, the system can surface the relevant predefined measures for that step without triggering a full routing or approval workflow. The consultant selects from the options you configured in the template. This keeps the evaluation structured and consistent across different client sites, while still giving the consultant control over which measure gets assigned based on what they observed.
Yes. Lumiform has no dependency on SAP or any other ERP system. The mobile app and desktop platform operate independently. Consultants build templates, conduct Gemba Walks, and generate reports without any connection to the client’s existing systems. If a client later wants to integrate Lumiform with their own tools, options exist via API or integrations with databases and cloud storage. But the core workflow runs entirely on its own. Clients on-site who see the app in use can adopt it in other areas without any system prerequisites.
