• Only Thinking Drives Sustainable Change• A3 formats are a waste-free way for report writing and
communication
“By standardizing and making visible the process of identifying problems and formulating solutions, individuals and companies can execute to their ideal state.”
- Jamie Flinchbaugh
Author, “A3 Problem Solving” Applying Lean Thinking

Inculcate Effective Problem SolvingChallenge 1Capture Problems (A3)Why?
Confusing (Definition and Use)
• A3s evolved from the Toyota Production System in the early 1960s as a simple, concise method for process improvement.
• The designation “A3” stands for the international size of the paper (11” x 17”) used to capture all the important information for easy understanding and decision making.
• The key element is not the form itself but the thinking that goes into the problem analysis and resolution practice.
• Common uses for A3s include: problem solving, proposals, project status and even value stream maps or hoshin planning.
