Lean:

Value Stream Mapping


Value Stream Mapping

 VSM is a visual tool used to analyze the flow of materials and


information needed to bring a product to the customer. It helps
identify non-value-adding activities (wastes) and streamline the
production process.
Symbols – Value Stream Map
 There are many different
types of symbols and
shaped used to
distinguish different parts
of a VSM. Here are a few
of the most widely used
symbols.
Example - Value Stream Map
Importance of a VSM

 We can see the process from a “birds eye view”


 Can easily identify areas to improve.
 Can easily see where bottlenecks in the process are occurring.
 Can use the tool to help make improvements to the process.
Application in the Wood Industry

 Consider a wood furniture manufacturing company that produces


tables. The process might include raw material procurement,
cutting, assembling, sanding, finishing, quality inspection, and
packaging.

 Common Wastes:
> Overproduction
> Waiting
> Excess Inventory
> Defects
Project Objectives

 Current State Mapping: Document the current workflow,


including time taken at each step, inventory levels, and
information flow.
 Example:
> Cutting
> Assembling
> Sanding
> Finishing
Project Objectives
 Future State Mapping Propose a streamlined process with
reduced waiting times and inventory levels.
Expected Outcomes:

 Efficiency Improvement: Reduce total production time per batch by


optimizing workflow.
 Quality Enhancement: Decrease defect rate by implementing standardized
work procedures and quality checks at each stage.
 Customer Satisfaction: Reduce lead time, resulting in faster delivery to
customers.
 Sustainability: Minimize material waste by improving accuracy in cutting
and reducing overproduction.
Methodology:
Data Collection Mapping Tools
Time Studies Process Flow
Inventory Analysis Diagram
Process Observation Value Stream Map
Stakeholder
Involvement
Workshops
Challenges and Considerations:
 Data Accuracy: Ensure accurate time and inventory data to reflect the true
process state.
 Communication: Clearly communicate the benefits of changes to all
employees.
 Training: Provide necessary training for new processes or equipment.

 Resource Constraints: Such as budget for new tools or time for training.
Timeline and Milestones:
