Observation Based Error Tracking

Do any of you have an observation based error tracking system in place?

What system do you use?

What types/how many process improvement projects or action items have been identified using observation based error tracking?

How has your organization responded to this type of tracking? (positive vs negative feedback)

How long did it take to implement?

Any insight is greatly appreciated!

Thank you,
