Suggestions

Suggestions is a log of continuous-improvement ideas submitted by the workforce — safety, process, cost-saving, environmental or quality suggestions — tracked from submission through to a decision and, where accepted, implementation.

People doing the work day to day often notice smaller, practical improvements that never surface through formal audits or incident investigations. A simple, tracked register gives those suggestions somewhere to go and a visible status, rather than depending on them being remembered and acted on informally.

A suggestion is submitted with a category and description, then moves through submitted → under-review → approved (or rejected) → implemented. An implemented date and an impact note can be recorded once a suggestion has actually been put into practice.

The list page shows every suggestion with its category, status and submission date, filterable and sortable by any of those. The detail page shows the full record; create and edit forms share the same fields.

• Title — required.
• Submitted by — required. Who made the suggestion.
• Date submitted — required.
• Category — required. One of Safety, Process, Cost Saving, Environment, Quality, Other.
• Description — required. What the suggestion actually proposes.
• Status — one of submitted, under-review, approved, implemented, rejected. Defaults to submitted.
• Implemented date — optional. When the suggestion was actually put into practice.
• Impact — optional free text describing the result once implemented.

Moving a suggestion through its statuses is a direct field edit, available to anyone with edit access to this register — there's no separate reviewer role or notification triggered when a suggestion's status changes in the current version of the product.
