What is Value Stream Mapping?
Value Stream Mapping (VSM) is a lean methodology that visualizes and analyzes workflows to identify inefficiencies, delays, and waste. It maps the flow of information and materials, enabling teams to optimize processes and enhance customer value. Miguel Dias explains that VSM helps teams improve onboarding, quality, and delivery frequency while reducing waste and boosting communication. More info.
