Value Stream Management is a complete system that provides a clear path to lean implementation, ensuring quick deployment and great benefits. It links the metrics and reporting required by management with the lean tools needed on the manufacturing floor. The central feature of this illustrative and engaging book is the value stream management storyboard, a tool representing an eight-step process for lean implementation. The storyboard brings together people, tools, metrics, and reporting into one visual document. The authors stress the importance of reaching beyond single-point kaizens to ensure a sustainable lean implementation process. Many people use the value stream map as an individual tool, but not within the context of a proven overall system. Value Stream Management: Eight Steps to Planning, Mapping, and Sustaining Lean Improvements shows you how to use mapping as part of a complete system for lean implementation. The final outcome of Value Stream Management is the creation of a complete, visual plan for lean transformation - and mastery of the skills required to implement it! The book includes: An overview of basic lean concepts - and a case study to demonstrate application; In-depth discussion of all 8 steps of value stream management; Appendix including team charter, forms, reports, and worksheets; CD with storyboard template and other useful charts.
