Your business is complicated. Value Steam Analysis breaks it down into the key components necessary to see the critical issues and develop lean system solutions. There are four main tools for completing the current state assessment and crafting a world-class target design:

• Logical Flow – A visual tool that is focused on the movement of products and information regardless of work location. It documents distinct product and service flow paths and exposes the complexity of flow path interactions.
• Product Proliferation – Links the logical flow to the products and services processed by those flows, illustrating where they split off and converge. A powerful tool for designing inventory and as an input to design for manufacturability.
• Physical Flow – A visual mapping of your products and services across the physical layout of your business.
• Value Stream Map – Focuses on process steps and information: sequencing/scheduling, process capability, flow time and inventory. We develop the Target State to simplify scheduling and make it more visual to the whole team. We also design strategic inventory levels and locations to control flow time and allow your people to work uninterrupted.
