By: Todd Sperl and Rob Ptacek

  In this book the authors convey the basic five steps to creating a value stream map, as well as when and where to use a value stream or process map, and when a hybrid approach might be used. If you Google ‘value stream maps’ (Images), you will find many examples; however, they do not provide a context on how/why they were created. The examples detailed in this book will provide that context. In summary, this book contains the following:
​1. Brief explanations on the examples for current and future state value stream maps

2. Five simple steps to mapping
3. Process mapping overview and examples
4. Hybrid mapping examples
5. Detailed listing and brief definitions for all the Lean and Six Sigma tools
6. A detailed case study
7. A Waste overview, Waste Walk, and Waste Audit

No two value stream or process maps are the same. The five steps will assist you in determining what type of map would most likely be of value given your requirements and needs. If you have any process or value stream maps to share, please contact info@theleanstore.com. We believe it is important to share these maps within the healthcare community as much as possible.
