Value Stream Mapping

Value Stream Mapping (VSM) is a two part program used to assess the “Current State” of a process and to define a “Future State” that focuses on an improved office or manufacturing process. The approach looks at the entire Value Stream as a process from customer demand back through raw materials acquisition. A VSM program allows a synergistic look at how your office and manufacturing processes impact your organizations performance from a customer standpoint. More importantly, a VSM creates a clear vision of where company wide employee-driven improvement activities will need to be focused to have the greatest impact on customer satisfaction
