Research Study 142 / 200
Tool storage makes task switching difficult
Scattered tools and an illogical retrieval sequence force users to reorganize repeatedly between tasks.
Three-step solution method
- Document tool sets, usage sequences and movement around the workbench.
- Organize tool access, return locations, and missing-tool indicators around tasks.
- Test tool storage and task switching across a continuous sequence of work.
Key Deliverables
- Tool–Task Map
- Storage Layout
- Tool Return Labels
Verification Approach
Compare how users find tools, identify missing items, and put tools away.
