Section Introduction1:30
The Value Stream Mapping (VSM) Masterclass: Become a Certified Value Stream Mapping (VSM) Specialist: Section Introduction
When the current state map is drawn with all the pertinent information filled, the next step is examining the map, looking at the problems, and the apparent solution. What needs to be at the forefront of your mind while studying the map is balance. To create a map that improves upon your production process, there is a need for balance in several places like a balance between the customer demand and the total process capacity as well as a balance between operations, especially the processing time. Striking a balance between the arrangement of products will also make sure the production pace is predictable and steady.
In this lecture, you will go through a quick understanding of what you will learn in this section.
Can your Process Meet Customer Demand with Existing No. of Operators?1:34
The Value Stream Mapping (VSM) Masterclass: Become a Certified Value Stream Mapping (VSM) Specialist: Can your Process Meet Customer Demand with Existing No. of Operators?
One of the first questions that you must analyze is: Can your Process Meet Customer Demand with Existing No. of Operators?
Let’s look at how to answer this question.
Can you Meet Customer Demand if you increase the No. of Operators?1:43
The Value Stream Mapping (VSM) Masterclass: Become a Certified Value Stream Mapping (VSM) Specialist: Can you Meet Customer Demand if you increase the No. of Operators?
Now comes the next question: Can you Meet Customer Demand if you increase the No. of Operators?
To answer this question, let’s look at this lecture.
Analyze the Process Balance1:58
The Value Stream Mapping (VSM) Masterclass: Become a Certified Value Stream Mapping (VSM) Specialist: Analyze the Process Balance
Unless a balance can be struck between the customer demands and the processing capacity, you will be unable to meet the customer demand. Effective production requires the consumer takt time to be longer than the cycle time.
What do I mean by this? Let’s look at this lecture.
Watch for Waste5:28
The Value Stream Mapping (VSM) Masterclass: Become a Certified Value Stream Mapping (VSM) Specialist: Watch for Waste
Upon completion of the capacity analysis, the next thing to examine in the current state map is any form of waste. There are seven accepted forms of waste according to the Toyota Production System, TPS, and they are discussed in this lecture.

Section Introduction1:10
The Value Stream Mapping (VSM) Masterclass: Become a Certified Value Stream Mapping (VSM) Specialist: Section Introduction
After a thorough examination of the current state map, you, no doubt, have a couple of changes you would like to implement in the current production process. It is only prudent you create another state map with your changes to see how implementable your ideas truly are. This will help you avoid mistakes as well as improve your changes.
You should apply the principles discussed in this lecture while drawing up your future state map.
How can you change your existing process to Continuous Flow?3:47
The Value Stream Mapping (VSM) Masterclass: Become a Certified Value Stream Mapping (VSM) Specialist: How can you change your existing process to Continuous Flow?
Moving towards continuous flow is an essential part of creating an efficient value stream map. This way, the products are produced continually without being stalled by inventory or delays in the middle of operations. While this is the ideal state and the goal, it cannot be achieved without constant practice. It is, nonetheless, the goal of value stream mapping and discussed in this lecture.
What is CONWIP?3:54
The Value Stream Mapping (VSM) Masterclass: Become a Certified Value Stream Mapping (VSM) Specialist: What is CONWIP?
