Mistake-Proofing, Poke Yoka (or Poka Yoke), or error-proofing as some people call it, refers to techniques that make it impossible to make mistakes. Mistake-Proofing techniques can drive defects out of products and processes and substantially improve quality and reliability.

Mistake-proofing involves innovative thinking coupled with a solid understanding of forced control, shutdown, warning, and sensory alert techniques and strategies. Mistake-Proofing is best taught through examples. Mistake-Proof It! computer-based and web-based training includes a comprehensive background on techniques as well as the steps required to implement those techniques.
