What is value stream mapping?
Value stream mapping is a planning tool that helps you create a visual representation of all the steps in your workflow. It’s an exercise of diagramming both the current and the ideal workflow that takes an item from an unstarted state to completion. By including otherwise siloed departments, teams, and processes in a single diagram, value mapping helps businesses identify waste across the entire value stream and work towards more efficient operations.
