Lean Six Sigma and Value Stream Mapping

§The current state VSM was created in the Review Phase and is analysed in the Investigar Phase for improvement opportunities.
§There are many lean tools & techniques which can be used but the majority of these are outside the scope of EGB training (see EBB Session 2).
§However, the majority of Lean tools & techniques are common sense improvements that become obvious after modelling the whole value stream.
§Potential improvements opportunities are represented as Kaizen Bursts (call-outs) on the VSM, at the appropriate place within the value stream.
§Kaizen is Japanese for improvement.
