About the Topic/ Outline:
Value Stream Mapping
“One concept that has persisted in Process Management and Process
Improvement over the years is the idea of core processes, or value stream
processes. Mapping the value stream for a product or service family from
supplier to customer is a vital step in understanding how an enterprise
creates value for its customers. In this presentation, we’ll define value
and waste, and discuss how to identify and map an enterprise’s value stream,
both from the enterprise-wide macro level and the local process level.”
