The Value Stream Mapping Tool

The value stream mapping tool was made famous by Mike Rother in his book 'learning to see'. This methodology enables the mapping of the entire value chain of a company, analyzing both physical and information flows. It is a powerful strategic tool that provides a current snapshot of what exists today, but also and above all allows you to project yourself into the future (with future mapping), checking the company's compatibility with its objectives and helping it to define the actions to be taken.
This book will show you how to carry out a VSM, both current and future, by explaining the key points (symbols used, KPI, 8 questions), useful tips when carrying it out, and application examples.
