MAPPING TO SEE KIT
Mapping to See: A Value Stream
Improvement Kit for the Office and Services is the latest
training solution from LEI. It’s based on the value stream
improvement project experience of some of the most seasoned
veterans working in Lean today. The process and tools
contained in this kit have been developed over hundreds of projects
in virtually every industry. It’s designed to bring this proven
approach to office and service environments in companies of all
sizes in the most cost-effective way possible.
The Mapping
to See Kit (MTS) is based on the same easy-to-use format as our
very successful Training To See Kit, introduced in 2000, but
provides even more help for both the new and experienced
trainer/facilitator. The MTS Kit includes everything that you need
to:
- Select and scope a Value
Stream Improvement (VSI) Project that really matters to the
business.
- Conduct a training workshop
for all of the key people in the VSI project that produces a
Current State Map with problems in the process flow clearly
identified, a vision of the Future State that is reviewed by
leadership and a detailed action plan with a management commitment
to support the recommended value stream changes.
- Produce a 60 to 90 day
implementation plan that creates meaningful, sustained business
results.
The kit
helps you to train people in all parts of a VSI project and not
just Value-Stream Mapping (VSM). Like any good tool, VSM is
only as good as the purpose it serves. The kit is based on the
principle that VSM will have its greatest impact only when it helps
real people dramatically improve real value streams
that have a real impact on the heart of their
business. In the kit we've provided you with both the
blueprint AND the construction tools.
The kit is
the most efficient way to get as many people as possible trained
properly to conduct VSI projects in their part of the business. For
the purchase price of $5,000 you have everything you need to train
up to 20 people, which translates to the initial training cost of
$175 per person. By purchasing additional MTS Participant Guides
you can deliver consistent VSI project training at all levels of
your organization.
