(based on a Workbook Learning to See by M. Rother and D. Jones, The Lean Enterprise Institute, Brookline, MA www.lean.org
In Lean Thinking Jim Womack and Dan Jones suggest the following step-by-step transformation process to a lean system:
Find a change agent (how about you?) Find a sensei (a teacher whose learning curve we can borrow) Seize or create a crisis to motivate action across your firm Map the entire value stream for all your product families Pick something important and get started removing waste quickly
Purpose:
To highlight the sources of waste and eliminate them by implementation of a future-state value stream
Helps to visualize the whole flow in the system It helps to see the waste and its source It helps the communication process It ties lean concepts and techniques It forms the basis (blueprint) for an implementation plan It shows the linkage between the information and material flow
Starting VSM
Select a product family Have one person (Value Stream Manager) that reports to top management lead the mapping effort Begin within the plant at the dock-to-dock level
VSM Process
Draw the Current-State Map of the flow Draw the Future-State Map of the flow by applying the lean concepts Break implementation into steps using a plan Continuously try to improve the flow Apply to other product families Incorporate in-bound and out-bound supply chains of your plant
Current-State Map
Start with the main customers Add shipping and the rest of the main upstream processes in the plant Add the main suppliers Show the material flow to customers and from suppliers Show the material flow within the plant and information flow Show the VA and non-VA Times
