The material section aims to identify and rectify any material-related issues that may impact the quality and efficiency of the process.

Method:

The method section of the checklist delves into the processes and procedures used in operations. It covers a range of crucial aspects, including:

1. Work Standards: Are established work standards being followed?
2. Safety: Is the work environment and process safe for all involved?
3. Efficiency: Is the method efficient in terms of resource utilization and time management?
4. Product Quality: Does the method ensure the production of a high-quality end product?
5. Work Sequence: Is the work sequence appropriate and optimized?
6. Setup: Are equipment and tools correctly set up?
7. Environmental Conditions: Is the temperature, humidity, lighting, and ventilation suitable for the operation?
