Value Stream Mapping (VSM) Training Course Overview:

Value Stream Mapping training enables Louisville students to visually summarize processes highlighting their waste, and opportunities for improvement. Value Stream Mapping is an essential tool of Lean Manufacturing. 'Value stream' refers to the fact that the mapping is depicting the process flow by which raw materials, information, etc. are altered and combined forming something for which customers are willing to pay. Along the way, any actions for which customers are not willing to pay are considered waste and highlighted on the map. Wastes generally take the form of downtime, inventory, inspection, etc.; manifestations of the Seven Deadly Sins.

Louisville

Derby City - Where Northern enterprise and Southern hospitality meet

Excellent choice! Louisville began as a settlement at the stopping point to further travel on the Ohio River. Boats had to be unloaded and moved downriver before reaching the Falls of the Ohio. Horse breeding and racing became popular making Louisville home of the Kentucky Derby. The waterfall was circumvented by a dam and lock. WWII spurred aircraft production. Production of tractors, automobiles, appliances, and bourbon developed. Yet, cargo remains the city's economic underpinning. Meanwhile, Louisville grew culturally as well offering many options for activity after Value Stream Mapping (VSM) Training. Festivals, independent art, museums, and parks abound. Most popular are the Louisville Mega Cavern, and Slugger Museum & Factory.

I had the pleasure of working with our Master Black Belt at our energy tech firm. There, he created an internal mentorship and training program to teach lean/six sigma concepts. The training was made available to employees spread both horizontally and vertically throughout the organization. Executives, managers, assemblers and receptionists alike were soon finding and eliminating waste within their workday. This divide-and-conquer philosophy in executing the continuous improvement program was not only an incredibly efficient way to find and implement cost savings, but also created a culture of empowerment within our organization. Our MBB encouraged all of his students to use these techniques to add value to the organization, in-turn making them more valuable employees.

Our SMED instructor did a great job engaging the class with great work examples. From this class, other students agreed that the examples and pace were good, it was a nice overview of SMED / Lean process leading to great discussion, and that the knowledgeable instructor did a great job teaching and keeping it fun.
