Capacity Triage - Quick Assessment

Prioritize the highest-impact actions in the next 30–90 days.

Once you know what is constrained, the real question is:

What do we do first — and what can wait?

This tool helps operations leaders avoid rushed decisions and unnecessary capital spend.

What This Tool Does

Stabilize First. Decide Second.

The Capacity Triage Assessment helps you determine:

  • Whether your operation is stable, constrained, or critical

  • How much runway you may be able to buy inside your current footprint

  • Which lever is most likely to help first:

Process • Layout • Labor • Structure

What You’ll Get

At the end, you’ll receive:

  • A capacity risk level (Stable / Constrained / Critical)

  • The top 2–3 interventions most likely to unlock throughput

  • A clear signal on whether you need to act now — or buy time

Start with triage, not transformation

At BlueJ, we start with a simple principle:

Stabilize first. Decide second.

That means:

1. Quickly understanding where capacity is truly constrained2. Identifying whether process, layout, labor, storage, or flow changes can buy time3. Using time created to make strategic decisions—not reactive ones

This approach avoids unnecessary capital spend and prevents locking in the wrong solution too early.
