Value StreamsA Value Steam is the set of steps, from initialrequest through the customer’s realization ofvalue. It contains all steps in the process.Necessary NonValue Added1. Value AddedUnnecessaryNon-ValueAdded6
Value Stream Mapping (VSM)“Value stream mapping is a lean manufacturing or lean enterprise technique used todocument, analyze and improve the flow of information or materials required to produce aproduct or service for a customer.” –isixsigma.com7
VSM Applications
Applications of Value Stream MappingValue Stream Mapping can be applied in a variety of ways1. Full Value Stream Mapping2. Value Stream Identification3. A quick, collaborative approach9

It’s Not Always Development Imagine An organization providing development services tomultiple business units wanted to accelerate valuedelivery and rebuild their reputation.16
A Quick, Collaborative ApproachWhile detailed metrics are critical to proper Value Stream Mapping, there can be value inleveraging a quick, collaborative approach.GatherPeople andPerspectivesBrainstorm theSteps in theFlowIdentify theBottlenecksBrainstormIdeas andHypothesizeExperiment &ValidateRepeat17

Understand the Bottlenecks19
Brainstorm and HypothesizeWe believe that understanding and measuring the stepsrequired to get a request through the intake process willaccelerate value delivery.We’ll know we’ve succeeded when we see a reductionin the total lead time from funnel to backlog.20
