eVSM Workshop - Electronic Value Stream Mapping : Lean training course Australia

eVSM Workshop

Maximum number of workshop participants: 10

Description:

This 1 day workshop will train users in the basic functionality of the eVSM (electronic value stream mapping) software, and give them the opportunity tp practice on their own value streams. The eVSM software was independently designed to complement to the lean workbooks from the Lean Enterprise Institute and its Global Lean Network and is distributed by members of the network (in USA, United Kingdom, Holland, France and Australia). There are 10,000+ users of eVSM worldwide today.
The workshop will provide hands-on training on how to reduce mapping time using new 'Quick' drawing templates from the latest version (V5). New users will find great benefit in the software overview, example maps and mapping exercises, existing users will find great value in V5 and its ability to utilize templates for faster mapping. This one day workshop will change the way you map.

An Operational Excellence Leader had the following thoughts about the software's latest release:
"This version feels very easy and intuitive. The functionality that you showed gives me the information that I want. Specifically, I want to commend the following features:
- Quick Manufacturing - It's easy to know which items to grab from the new menu and quickly make a map.
- CT / TT Graph - With 2 clicks, we can create a graph of all activities and compare to Takt Time.
- Path - This is a new feature that I was going to ask for. This lets us indicate certain activities so that they can be analyzed as a group. For me, I can look at people who do more than 1 activity and see that they are under TAKT.
I was able to create 2 major maps in 1.5 hours on my own. With your additional 30 minutes of help, I have all the analysis that I need for my next 2 projects. Thank you very much for your product and its continued improvements."

After working with v5, an Operations Consultant had these thoughts:
"Here are benefits that we see with 5.0: the original stencils that we had created were cumbersome and individuals were either trying to remove data blocks or went back to creating the activity centers from scratch. The idea of having a very basic activity center with the ability to add data blocks as needed is a great idea. We also like the idea of being able to change data by activity center (ie. Adding overtime to a specific activity center). We were all very pleasantly surprised to hear about the new tool."

Don't miss out on this chance to learn more about the latest version of eVSM and how the software can increase your ability to capture, analyze, visualize and share value stream maps as a critical piece of your lean deployment.

Participants need to bring their own laptops. We will provide free upgrades for people with licenses older than v5 (normally $199). Those without eVSM licenses will be able to purchase one for $150.
