DOCUMENT DESCRIPTION

Value Stream Mapping (VSM) is a practical and highly effective way to learn to see and resolve disconnects, redundancies, and gaps in how work gets done. At the strategic level, a VSM exercise should be conducted first before teams dive into problem solving and/or kaizen activities.

In this training powerpoint, you will learn the meaning and benefits of value stream mapping, prepare for a value stream mapping activity, identify a product/service family, document a current state value stream map, analyze value and waste, design the future state value stream, and finally create an implementation plan.

NOTE: This training presentation comes with a VSM template in PowerPoint format and Excel templates comprising VSM Charter, Results Table, Implementation Plan and Common VSM Icons.
