Chapter 6: Driving Process Change with Value Stream Maps
To fully understand processes, we must know who executes the process, when it is going to be executed, and why it is going to be executed. This information can help in breaking down processes and eliminating redundancies so that useful processes can be automated.
This chapter will help you improve the process flow within your organization by reducing unnecessary processes using value stream mapping.
In this chapter, we're going to cover the following main topics:
- Understanding value stream mapping
- How does value stream mapping help?
- Differences between process maps and value stream maps
- Explaining an example value stream map
