Value Stream Mapping - design elements
ConceptDraw PRO is a software for making Value Stream Mapping diagram with more than 10 library objects that are scalable vector images.

value stream map, VSM Value Stream Mapping

value stream map, VSM
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 usually employs standard symbols to represent items and processes, therefore knowledge of these symbols is essential to correctly interpret the production system problems." [Value stream mapping. Wikipedia]
The vector stencils library Value stream mapping contains 43 symbols for drawing the value stream mapping diagrams using the ConceptDraw PRO diagramming and vector drawing software.
The example "Design elements - Value stream mapping diagram" is included in the Value Stream Mapping solution from the Quality area of ConceptDraw Solution Park.

Value stream with ConceptDraw PRO

value stream maping objects, value stream process diagram, value stream design process elements
The Value stream is a totality of all actions on the projection, order composition and production: starting from creation a product project to launching this product, from order to delivery, from extraction of raw materials to ready product manufacturing. Value stream mapping is a process of visualization of these actions and creation of a detailed and graphical map.

Lean Manufacturing Diagrams

Value stream mapping (VSM) design elements
The Value Stream Mapping solution continues to extend the range of ConceptDraw PRO into a business graphics tool that can be used to document processes of Lean Manufacturing.
"Value stream mapping is a lean management principle used to analyze and design the flow of materials and information required to bring a product or service to a consumer. Pioneered by Henry Ford in the 1920s, perfected by Toyota. At Toyota, it is known as "material and information flow mapping". It can be applied to nearly any value chain. ...
Value stream mapping has supporting methods that are often used in Lean environments to analyze and design flows at the system level (across multiple processes).
Although value stream mapping is often associated with manufacturing, it is also used in logistics, supply chain, service related industries, healthcare, software development, product development, and administrative and office processes." [Value stream mapping. Wikipedia]
This value stream map template explains the meanings of the VSM design elements.
This Value stream map template for the ConceptDraw PRO diagramming and vector drawing software is included in the Value Stream Mapping solution from the Quality area of ConceptDraw Solution Park.

Create a Value Stream Map Rapidly

Value stream map (VSM) template
The Value Stream Mapping solution from ConceptDraw Solution Park extends ConceptDraw PRO software with a new library that contains vector objects, samples and templates.
"Value Stream Mapping (VSM):
– Special type of flow chart that uses symbols known as "the language of Lean" to depict and improve the flow of inventory information. ...
Value Stream Mapping ...
Provide optimum value to the customer through a complete value creation process with minimum waste in:
– Design (concept to customer);
– Design (concept to customer);
– Build (order to delivery);
– Sustain (in-use through life cycle to service)." [courses.washington.edu/ ie337/ Value_ Stream_ Mapping.pdf]
This sample Value Stream Map shows how customer value is created in the steps of manufacturing, production control, and shipping processes.
This VSM example was created using the ConceptDraw PRO diagramming and vector drawing software extended with the Value Stream Mapping solution from the Quality area of ConceptDraw Solution Park.

ConceptDraw Arrows10 Technology

Value stream map template
With ConceptDraw Arrows10 Technology - You can delete a single connector, by using the Delete key. If you need to delete more than a single connector in a complex diagram that contains many relations there is a special Delete Links tool which deletes the connectors only, no other drawing objects are deleted.

ConceptDraw Arrows10 Technology

Value stream mapping diagram example
Connecting objects manually in ConceptDraw PRO is a snap: - points; - Connecting groups of objects; - Auto-routing; - Connectors text; - Snap to Guides ; - Quick.

ConceptDraw Arrows10 Technology

Value stream map example
You can use text with any conceptDraw connectors to describe relationships between objects. Add text to connectors the same way you add text to any object - doubleclick a connector and type.

Types of Flowcharts

Types of Flowcharts
A Flowchart is a graphical representation of process, algorithm, workflow or step-by-step solution of the problem. It shows the steps as boxes of various kinds and connects them by arrows in a defined order depicting a flow. There are twelve main Flowchart types: Basic Flowchart, Business Process Modeling Diagram (BPMN), Cross Functional Flowchart, Data Flow Diagram (DFD), IDEF (Integrated DEFinition) Flowchart, Event-driven Process Chain (EPC) Diagram, Influence Diagram (ID), Swimlane Flowchart, Process Flow Diagram (PFD), Specification and Description Language (SDL) Diagram, Value Stream Mapping, Workflow Diagram. Using the Flowcharts solution from the Diagrams area of ConceptDraw Solution Park you can easy and quickly design a Flowchart of any of these types. This solution offers a lot of special predesigned vector symbols for each of these widely used notations. They will make the drawing process of Flowcharts much easier than ever. Pay also attention for the included collection of ready Flowchart examples, samples and quick-start templates. This is business process improvement tools. If you are looking for MS Visio for your Mac, then you are out of luck, because it hasn't been released yet. However, you can use Visio alternatives that can successfully replace its functions. ConceptDraw PRO is an alternative to MS Visio for Mac that provides powerful features and intuitive user interface for the same.
