Value Stream Mapping

A complete, practical course for improvement engineers, supervisors and managers who will lead a value stream mapping workshop. Learn to choose a product family, walk the stream and collect the data, draw the current-state map with the standard icons, calculate lead time, takt time and the value-added ratio, and design a future state with flow, pull, a pacemaker, pitch and levelling. It ends with the implementation plan, service and office streams, and how to sustain the map.
