Value Stream Mapping


 VSM is a visual tool used to analyze the flow of materials
and information needed to bring a product to the
customer. It helps identify non-value-adding activities
(wastes) and streamline the production process.

Symbols – Value Stream Map


 There are many
different types of
symbols and shaped
used to distinguish
different parts of a
VSM. Here are a few of
the most widely used
symbols.

Application in the Wood Industry


 Consider a wood furniture manufacturing company that
produces tables. The process might include raw material
procurement, cutting, assembling, sanding, finishing,
quality inspection, and packaging.
 Common Wastes:
> Overproduction
> Waiting
> Excess Inventory
> Defects

Project Objectives
 Current State Mapping: Document the current workflow,
including time taken at each step, inventory levels, and
information flow.
 Example:
> Cutting
> Assembling
> Sanding
> Finishing

Project Objectives
 Future State Mapping Propose a streamlined process
with reduced waiting times and inventory levels.

Expected Outcomes:
 Efficiency Improvement: Reduce total production time per batch
by optimizing workflow.
 Quality Enhancement: Decrease defect rate by implementing
standardized work procedures and quality checks at each stage.
 Customer Satisfaction: Reduce lead time, resulting in faster
delivery to customers.
 Sustainability: Minimize material waste by improving accuracy in
cutting and reducing overproduction.
