APS - Advanced Problem Solving - 2026 Pricing, Features, Reviews & Alternatives

APS – Advanced Problem Solving is a modular problem-solving and continuous improvement platform designed to help organizations systematically resolve complex issues, eliminate recurring problems, and ensure sustainable corrective actions. Built on proven Lean, TPM, and quality methodologies, APS turns problem solving into a transparent, collaborative, and data-driven process.

APS digitalizes established methods such as Ishikawa (Fishbone), 5 Whys, A3, and 8D, combining them with structured phase-based workflows and approval gates. Each problem is guided from definition through root cause analysis to CAPA (Corrective and Preventive Actions), ensuring accountability, consistency, and verified results.

Teams can define clear objectives, assign responsibilities, manage tasks, and track progress using Gantt charts and a visual storyboard view. Managers gain full visibility into timelines, bottlenecks, corrective actions, and overall problem-solving performance across departments and locations.

APS replaces fragmented, paper-based, or Excel-driven approaches with real-time collaboration, standardized workflows, and analytics dashboards. Employees benefit from intuitive forms, guided steps, and multilingual support, while organizations gain better learning retention and organizational knowledge.

With multi-language support, flexible cloud or on-premise deployment, system integrations, and a modular design that connects seamlessly with other Performance Storyboard® tools, APS scales easily from local teams to global enterprises and supports a consistent, high-quality problem-solving culture.
