Workshop Goals

• Develop an understanding of the Lean improvement philosophy, process and tools
• Develop knowledge and skills for creating current and future state value stream maps
• Create a current state map, future state map and a Lean project deployment plan for one of your product families.
• Create a roadmap to attain the "Future State"

Workshop Outline

This workshop introduces Value Stream Mapping to measure and define the process improvement opportunities.

• Create Your Current State Map
• See the Waste/Opportunities
• Create Your Future State Map
• Develop and Execute a Working Plan
• Maintain and Expand the VSM Process

Participants will analyze and document the current state value stream for a case study.
