Last week’s show was part one of a three part series on how to use value stream mapping in your company. The intent of this series is to provide listeners with enough information to get started using this tool to improve their business processes. Last week we covered three prerequisites that you need to understand prior to trying to start a value stream. Those perquisites are:
- Learn to see process wastes
- The difference between Value Add and Non-Value Add
- The Four Rules
To help you get started, I have uploaded a pdf outlining the above rules in more detail. Take a look and let me know if you have any questions.
Tune tomorrow at 8 AM as we cover how to create the current state value stream map of a process! You can even listen live via the internet at: wtkiradio.com
An Example of A Value Stream Map(VSM) using the Post It Note technique that we will discuss on Monday's Show.
