Optimizing Operations through Value Stream Mapping PPT


This PPT slide, part of the 157-slide Lean - Value Stream Mapping (VSM) PowerPoint presentation, presents a detailed overview of a Value Stream Mapping (VSM) process, emphasizing the integration of Kaizen events or "bursts" within the operational workflow. It outlines the flow from raw material suppliers to the end customer, highlighting critical stages such as cutting, printing, binding, and shipping. Each stage is represented with key performance indicators, including cycle times (C.T.), changeover times (C.O.), and uptime percentages.

Starting with the raw material supplier, the slide indicates a supply of 250 ft rolls, which feeds into a Kanban scheduling system. This system is crucial for managing inventory and ensuring timely production. The cutting process shows a cycle time of 1.5 seconds with no changeover time, indicating efficiency. However, the uptime is only at 75%, suggesting room for improvement.

Moving to the printing stage, the cycle time increases to 2.5 seconds, with a significant changeover time of 65 minutes. This points to a bottleneck that could be addressed through targeted improvements. The binding process further illustrates a cycle time of 4.0 seconds and a 55% uptime, reinforcing the need for operational enhancements.

The slide also incorporates forecasting elements, including a six-week production plan and daily orders, which are essential for aligning production with customer demand. The customer requirements are clearly defined, with a daily need of 7,500 pieces, segmented into specific color demands. Overall, the slide serves as a strategic tool for identifying inefficiencies and aligning production processes with customer expectations, making it a valuable resource for organizations aiming to optimize their operations.



This slide is part of the Lean - Value Stream Mapping (VSM) PowerPoint presentation.

Developed by a Senior Executive and Operational Excellence Coach with experience at organizations including NOKIA, MICROVENTION, and MAGELLAN, this is a presentation and templates for planning and performing a Value Stream Mapping Event.
