Many organizations today suffer from silo-centric behavior and intra-organizational conflict. Yet most don't understand what's holding them back from achieving outstanding performance.
Value Stream Mapping (VSM)—an essential but underused methodology—is a proven approach to help you visualize and resolve disconnects, redundancies, and gaps in how work gets done. More than merely a tool to eliminate operational waste, value stream mapping is a highly effective means to transform leadership thinking, define strategy and priorities, and create customer-centric work-flow.
At the strategic level, a VSM exercise should be conducted first before teams dive into problem solving and/or kaizen activities.
In today's high-pace business environment, there are many problems to be solved and too many opportunities to be leveraged to operate without a highly effective means for accomplishing the important work to be done.
Value stream mapping is the missing link in business management and, properly executed, has the power to address many business woes.
In this training powerpoint, you will learn the meaning and benefits of value stream mapping, and prepare for a value stream mapping activity that includes four simple phases:Â
• Phase 1: identify a product/service family;
• Phase 2: document a current state value stream map, analyze value and waste;
• Phase 3: design the future state value stream;Â and
• Phase 4: create an implementation plan.
