Frequently asked questions
How fast can we get started with Daily Management?
Most teams run their first tier meeting in TeamGuru within a few weeks. Leader routines, escalation and kaizen follow as the teams get used to it.
Do we have to use every module?
No. Start with the one that hurts most, often tier meetings or the skill matrix, and add the rest later. They all run in the same system.
Can we import existing skill data?
Yes. We support imports from Excel and CSV. Our team can help you migrate existing skill matrices, training records, and certifications.
Does it work for multi-site organizations?
Yes. Enterprise and Unlimited plans support multi-plant skill tracking with centralized visibility and site-level management.
Can operators use it on the shop floor?
Yes. TeamGuru runs in the browser on phones and tablets, and operators can take part as light users with a simpler screen, for example to submit a kaizen.
