5 My Involvement with VSM Supply Chain Development Programme * Process Activity Mapping * Brown Paper Mapping 1997 Paper: The Seven Value Stream Mapping Tools * Codified Mapping Approach 1997 First Rother & Shook publication * Big Picture Mapping 1999 Corus-Forge-Volvo Transmission VSM work 2000 Going Lean publication * see Lean Profit Potential * see Value Stream Mapping 5

6 What Have I Learned? Don t be a happy mapper Start by understanding what you are trying to achieve Can anyone tell me the 4 Lean Principles? And what about a link to Strategy? Involve the recipients in the mapping Don t do mapping to people Don t Just Map Internally Don t Just Map Order Fulfilment No one map will do the job Chose the right maps Value Stream Mapping 6
