Yellow Tags and Micro Frustrations | Lean Built - Manufacturing Freedom E99

Jay walks listeners through how Trello has become the backbone of Pierson's documentation and digital workflow system—replacing binders, Dropbox links, and scattered storage with an integrated, accessible, and collaborative project management setup. Andrew offers a comparison with Asana and how they track product development through value/difficulty filters.

Then the episode shifts toward lean factory layout, as Andrew details a recent consultation that helped him rethink mold storage, tool access, and workspace flow. The episode wraps with a conversation about leadership—highlighting how small process frustrations, when voiced and owned by proactive team members, can lead to high-impact improvements.
