Value Stream Mapping’s Roots

Mike Rother & John Shook, 1999 Beau Keyte & Drew Locher, 2004

Whenever there is a product for a customer, there is a value stream. 

The challenge lies in seeing it.

Value Stream Mapping: Common Failings

• Using the mapping process solely as a work design exercise

• Using the map to make tactical improvements

• Creating maps but taking no action

• Mapping with an inappropriate team—or no team at all

• Creating value stream maps during a kaizen event

• Creating maps with no metrics

• Mapping without a team charter or not socializing it

Key Roles: Considerations

• Executive Sponsor– Typically VP or higher

– Authority over significant portion of value stream (or strong relationship w/ peer group)

– Ultimately accountable for results

– Must attend briefings

• Value Stream Champion– Oversee significant portion of the value stream

– Heavily engaged in entire value stream transformation (own the transformation plan)

– Member of mapping team

– In small companies or those just starting out, the VS Champion and Exec Sponsor could be the same person.

• Facilitator– Objective; no “skin in the game”

– Skilled in both mapping/improvement mechanics, and high‐level team dynamics.

Your Questions

• How to deal with information flow problems between sales, management, and engineering before and during production.

• For an organization just beginning their Lean transformation, how do you encourage effective use of VSM? Data that exists is often questionable. It's difficult to get leaders to commit the time to do it right.

• I’m looking to implement a continuous improvement culture in an office environment. Where should I start?
