A value stream is the series of activities that take a product
from the supplier to the customer (for a physical product), or from the
customer request to filling that need (for a service or informational
product). It includes all the value-adding processes that the company
performs in the Lean office or on the shop floor.
The value of a value stream map is that it helps identify waste by
starting at the customer and looking upstream and applying the basic Lean
principles in order to make the business more efficient.
Those
who take this class will be able to lead a Value Stream Mapping activity
at your business which will include:
1)
creating a current value stream map
2)
creating a future value stream map
3)
identifying Kaizen Bursts (improvements).
This
class will be held on April 17 from 8:00a-1:00p in Hickman 122 on the Columbia
campus. Fee: $139.
