Value Stream Mapping

Value stream mapping solution extends ConceptDraw PRO software with templates, samples and vector stencils for drawing the Value Stream Maps (VSM) in lean manufacturing practice.

Value Stream Mapping Template

Use ConceptDraw PRO extended with Value Stream Mapping solution for document processes with professional designed Value Stream Mapping template.

VSM symbols are the best for a production process designing. The entire Value Stream Mapping method uses a graphical representation of the manufacturing process, factors' pros and cons, that all stakeholders can easily understand. Value Stream Mapping is a graphical technique that provides possibilities to improve analysis of a manufacturing process, at the stage of the transferring information or materials that required to deliver a product or service to the customer.

Quality Engineering Diagrams

Create Quality Engineering Diagrams (value stream maps) - for value stream analysis and value stream management, material and information flow mapping, using our quick start templates included with ConceptDraw.

Value Stream Mapping Examples

ConceptDraw PRO diagramming and vector drawing software supplied with Value Stream Mapping solution from the Quality area of ConceptDraw Solution Park is ideal for drawing Value Stream Maps and includes variety of value stream mapping examples.

VSM

Value stream mapping is a lean-management method for analyzing the current state and designing a future state for the series of events that take a product or service from its beginning through to the customer. ConceptDraw PRO diagramming and vector drawing software extended with Value Stream Mapping solution from the Quality area of ConceptDraw Solution Park is effective for implementation a value stream mapping (VSM) process and for creating Value Stream Maps.

How to Create a VSM Diagram Using ConceptDraw Value Stream Mapping Solution

Value Stream Mapping is a Lean Manufacturing tool that uses a flow diagram to document in great detail every step of a manufacturing process. This graphical representation of a process is a powerful tool that helps in the diagnosis of process efficiency and allows companies to develop improved processes. Many lean practitioners use Value Stream Mapping as a fundamental tool to identify waste, cut process cycle times, and implement process improvement. Many organizations use value stream mapping as a key portion of their lean efforts. Value Stream Maps are used to analyze and design the flow of materials and information required to bring a product or service to a consumer. You can create a Value Stream Mapping flowchart using ConceptDraw PRO tools.
