Value Stream Mapper

Overview

The Value Stream Mapper skill provides comprehensive capabilities for mapping, analyzing, and improving value streams. It supports current state process flow mapping, material and information flow visualization, and future state design with actionable implementation roadmaps.

Capabilities

  • Current state process flow mapping
  • Material and information flow visualization
  • Lead time and cycle time calculation
  • Value-added vs. non-value-added time analysis
  • Seven wastes (TIMWOODS) identification
  • Future state design with improvement targets
  • Implementation roadmap generation

Used By Processes

  • LEAN-001: Value Stream Mapping
  • LEAN-003: Kaizen Event Facilitation
  • CI-001: Operational Excellence Program Design

Tools and Libraries

  • Process mining tools
  • Visio/Lucidchart APIs
  • VSM templates
  • Data visualization libraries

Usage

yaml
skill: value-stream-mapper
inputs:
  process_scope: "Order-to-delivery for product line A"
  mapping_type: "current_state"  # current_state | future_state
  data_sources:
    - erp_system: "SAP"
    - mes_data: "production_logs"
outputs:
  - current_state_map
  - waste_analysis
  - lead_time_metrics
  - future_state_design
  - implementation_roadmap

Workflow

  1. Define Scope - Identify product family and process boundaries
  2. Gather Data - Collect process times, inventory levels, and flow information
  3. Map Current State - Document material and information flows
  4. Identify Wastes - Categorize and quantify the seven wastes
  5. Design Future State - Create improved process design
  6. Plan Implementation - Develop prioritized action roadmap

Integration Points

  • ERP systems (SAP, Oracle, Microsoft Dynamics)
  • Manufacturing Execution Systems (MES)
  • Process mining tools
  • Project management platforms
