#LeanThinking- Value Stream Mapping(VSM)

Value Stream Mapping (VSM) is indeed a powerful Lean technique for visualizing and analyzing the flow of materials and information through a process. By mapping out every step from customer order to delivery, it helps identify areas of waste and opportunities for improvement.

  • Visual Representation: It provides a clear visual of both process flow and communication flow, making it easier to spot inefficiencies.
  • Data-Driven: VSM uses data to create actionable plans for Lean projects, ensuring improvements are based on solid evidence.
  • Waste Reduction: By highlighting areas of waste, VSM helps teams find solutions to reduce or eliminate waste.
  • Continuous Improvement: The method supports ongoing improvement efforts by identifying future opportunities for enhancement.


Example:

The below picture shows the current state of production system

?In which a monthly production in a shift= 80405 pieces and b shift=10256 pieces

?Daily production a shift= 3833 pieces and b shift=488 pieces

?Factory runs for 2 Shifts/day=960 mins
