Value
Stream Mapping / A3 Management
May 15 Wednesday 1 Day workshop
presented by Andy Pattantyus
Advanced
Lean for Management
Prepare
a financially sound VSM for your next
Lean project
Tell
a meaningful story using A3 sheets and
get the approval your project deserves
Bring your project idea to
this seminar. To sell your idea, you
need a good road map and convincing
story to explain where you are going.
A strong road map begins with Value
Stream Mapping including a financial
analysis.
The Lean learning organization uses
Value Stream Mapping to:
- Map existing current state process
flow
a. Establish a base line for present
day operations
b. Document and record end to end
flow of materials and processes
c. Relate the flow to procurement
and financial operations
- Map future state process flow
a. Establish the revised process flow
for future state operations
b. Document and record the revised
process flow and process steps
c. Bring in other related process
into map addressing shipping and suppliers
- Identify waste of resources and
potential cost savings
a. Cost critical analysis in your
Future State VSM (Advanced
Lean Thinking)
A great story is always told
the way the listener wants to hear it.
Learn how to craft your story using
the A3 method. A3 sheets are a standardized
structure for the “lost art”
of storytelling. Humans are powerfully
hardwired to retain and respond to stories.
The Lean learning organization uses
A3 sheets to:
- Empower people with initiative.
- Formalize the relationship between
the producer (problem solver) and
the coach (mentor or
Sensei).
- Make sure people are learning.
- Tell an effective story (Advanced
Lean Thinking)
a. Enable problem solvers to sell
their improvement ideas.
b. Enable the organization to commit
resources confidently.
c. Frame decision making and assure
buy-in from stakeholders.
