Benchmarking: An International Journal, 1999
This paper describes the application of a new variant of process benchmarking called value stream mapping to the development of a supplier network around a prominent distributor of electronic, electrical and mechanical components. This involved mapping the activities of the firm, identifying opportunities for improvement and then undertaking with the ...

An evaluation of the value stream mapping tool
Business Process Management Journal, 2008PurposeThe value stream mapping (VSM) is a tool created by the lean production movement for redesigning the productive systems. Since, it was theoretically developed, some cases have been published where the mentioned tool has been used; however, there is a need to see how it is put into practice, that is to analyze the level in which theory is able to

Uncertainty in value stream mapping analysis
International Journal of Logistics Research and Applications, 2009In this article, two alternative approaches to include variability analysis in value stream mapping (VSM) are presented. Notoriously, VSM is one of the best tools to map a process and to identify its main criticalities in order to enhance lean manufacturing.

Value streams are the whole set of activities, resources, and information required to provide a product or service to a customer. In this lesson you will learn about production flow value stream maps, which cover the flow of value from the customer back to the suppliers. We will begin by creating a value stream map (VSM) of an existing process.

Value stream mapping in a jobshop
IET International Conference on Agile Manufacturing (ICAM 2007), 2007The standard value stream map is not giving the complete information in a jobshop environment to reflect on and to work on to make better processes and better working system. So to improve the validity of the of the map within the jobshop environment modifications are made by drawing an improved map considering the product groups, average product ...

RFID- Enabled dynamic Value Stream Mapping
Proceedings of 2012 IEEE International Conference on Service Operations and Logistics, and Informatics, 2012Value Stream Mapping (VSM) is one of the most powerful lean manufacturing tools used for quick analyses of products and information flow through a manufacturing system from door to door. This versatile, powerful method is used to visualize product flows as snapshot; it just describes the production behavior within specific period from the total ...
