"Whenever there is a product for the customer there is a value stream. The challenge lies in seeing it."
Rother & Shook, "Learning to See"
Value Stream Mapping is our recommended starting point for a lean initiative. Running improvement initiatives without first Value Stream Mapping leads to improvement efforts which are not targeted at improving flow but rather at improving individual processes which may produce no overall benefit.
Benefit
Our Value Stream Mapping workshops produce benefits in lead time reduction, cost savings and productivity improvements.
Value Stream Mapping enables you to visualise your key business processes, bringing them to life for you. This then tells you where to focus your efforts in your business to reduce waste and identify its root causes.
Our Know How
We have successfully run Value Stream Mapping workshops in Manufacturing, Engineering, Pharmaceutical and Service environments.
Amongst others we have worked with 3M, Corus, Caterpillar and sanofi aventis to develop achievable future states.
We promote the use of Value Stream Mapping as both a strategic planning tool and as a surprisingly effective communication tool for your organisation.
What We Deliver
What we give you is a deep understanding of your current state process. You create a visual record of material, information and people movements in your process.
We then lead you to create breakthrough thinking on a future state process that is achievable and exciting. We have extensive and growing experience to tailor the workshop directly to your organisation as we have applied our Value Stream Mapping techniques across many industries now.
