Value Stream Mapping (VSM) is a Lean Manufacturing technique used to analyze and design the flow of material and/or information. It enables to identify and eliminate waste, in order to streamline work processes, cut lead times, reduce costs, and increase quality thus enabling on time delivery and first time right product or service.
In VSM, a cross functional team of employees maps the current state from customer back to raw material, including all steps – both value-added and non-value-added.
The team also develops a Future State map to act as a blueprint for Lean activities. The Future State often represents a significant change from the way the organisation currently operates. The employee team develops an implementation road map to make the Future State a reality.
The short term most urgent needs are addressed first and long term actions are also initiated in the exercise.

We all experience that meetings are conducted in most Organizations but they get dragged into non-essential & non relevant points. This leads to wastage of time & avoidance of meeting. But a single input of attending IFQ’s training program in cross functional areas like:- kaizen & team work, 7 QC tools & leadership, Problem solving techniques & communication skills etc., can change approach & mind-set of employees during meetings & brain storming sessions.
Certificates will be issued to the participants after examination.
