This PPT slide, part of the 19-slide Value Stream Mapping (VSM) Primer PowerPoint presentation, outlines the Value Stream Mapping (VSM) process, emphasizing its collaborative nature. It highlights that VSM should include representatives from all relevant areas involved in the process being mapped. This approach ensures a comprehensive understanding of the workflow and facilitates effective identification of inefficiencies.
Eight key steps are presented in a sequential format, starting with "Sponsor selection" and concluding with "Benefits Measurement." Each step plays a critical role in the successful creation of a Value Stream Map. The first step involves selecting a sponsor, which is crucial for providing direction and support throughout the mapping process. Following that, the "Team selection" step emphasizes the importance of gathering a diverse group of stakeholders who can contribute insights from various perspectives.
The "Process selection" step allows the team to focus on specific workflows that require analysis. This is followed by "Data Collection and Current State Map," where relevant data is gathered to visualize the existing state of the process. The "Current State Evaluation" step assesses this data to identify areas for improvement.
Next, the "Future State Map" step envisions an optimized process, setting the stage for actionable changes. The "Action Plan" step outlines the specific initiatives needed to bridge the gap between the current and future states. Finally, "Benefits Measurement" ensures that the outcomes of the VSM process are tracked and evaluated, providing insights into the effectiveness of the implemented changes.
The slide concludes with a note suggesting that creating the VSM by hand and involving the entire team is more effective than relying solely on an expert. This reinforces the collaborative ethos of the VSM process, making it clear that collective input is invaluable for achieving the best results.
