Description: Value
Stream Mapping (VSM) is one of the strongest "tools" in the lean
manufacturing toolbox. Tom Epply, Vice President of
Engineering for Comfort Motion Technologies, LLC, will show participants
how to create a "map," which is a picture of the entire flow of a
process from beginning to end, using examples from participants. Once a
map has been created, it can be used to identify areas of inefficiency and
waste. Improvements can then be made to the process that will increase
productivity, reduce expenses, and ultimately, enhance customer satisfaction
for your organization.
