Value Stream Mapping

Description:

Value Stream Mapping is a critical tool for your Lean Implementation. It provides a roadmap for change, from which you can build your implementation plan for becoming a Lean Enterprise. In fact, without a Value Stream Map, businesses often are pursuing Lean via only “point improvement”, which does not lead to systemic change.

Learning Objectives:

  1. Identify the Product Families in your business
  2. Develop a Current State Value Stream Map using a case study
  3. Develop your own Current State Value Stream Map for each Product Family
  4. Develop a Future State Value Stream Map using a case study and applying the 8 Future State questions
  5. Develop your own Future State Value Stream Map for each Product Family
  6. Create initial Implementation Plans to achieve the Future State for each Product Family
