Elements to Cover
• Value stream mapping – definition/theory
• Current state map
• Action plan to future state
• Future state map
• Case Study – VSM at the Case IH Grand Island
facility
• Workshop – Video Console VSM
What is Value Stream Mapping
VSM: process of mapping the primary material
and information flows in converting raw
material to finished product or creating a service
of value that a customer is willing to pay for.
Levels that can be mapped:
Process : Plant : Multiple plants: Cross company

Benefits of VSM
• Visualize entire process
• Common language
• Demonstrates links between operations
• Flow decisions easy to identify
• Waste identified
• Continuous improvement tool - iterations
VSM Primary Maps
• Current state map
– How we are today including key measurement and
communication flows
• Future state map
– Where we plan to be a year or two from now
based on proposed process improvement activity

Steps to a Current State Map
• Walk the process – start upstream
• Establish customer requirements
• Determine major product families
• Pick a primary flow and major product
• Walk again, measure key elements, count
inventory
• Draw current state map
Establish Customer Requirements
• Define takt time – pieces per day, week,
month, year – rate customer requires product
– 21 units per day in 8 hours, 100% utilization
• Factor 0.5 hr lunch, 2 - 15 min breaks
• Avaliable time => 7 hours => 420 mins
– 420/ 21 => 20 min takt time
• Goal is to produce 1 unit every 20 mins

Determine Major Product and Flow
• Delineate major processes
– Simplify but cover major steps in the flow

Payment Process
Measure Process Data
• Typical data to measure – varies with product
– Cycle Time : Changeover time : Uptime : Lead time
– EPE – 'leveled' production time : Scrap rate
– # of Operators : Pack size : Available time
• Use smallest time measurement feasible for
product – seconds, minutes, hours, days

• Examples of symbols used:Electronic Information

Primary elements to consider
• VA - value added activity
– impacts the fit, form or function of a product or
service that a customer is willing to pay for – eg
install gas cap on tank
• NVA - non value added activity
– elements in the conversion process that adds no
value to the product or service – eg move gas cap
to point of installation

Review map for process inefficiencies
• Waste – 7 primary symptoms of problems
- Over-production : Waiting : Transportation
- Inventory : Motion : Over-processing : Defects
- NVA vs VA time
- Over or under takt
- Push systems
- Line balance

Ask Primary Questions
• What is causing the waste?
• Where can we use continuous flow or pull?
• Where is best to trigger production?
• What is the bottleneck?
• How do we improve the bottleneck?
• How do we level production?
Determine Plan of Action
• Implement kanban
• Add kitting areas with kit carts
• Use standard packaging from suppliers
• Balance lines and reallocate resources
• Rearrange work stations for efficiency
• Mix model production where feasible

List opportunity to improve – eg Pizza
• Implement electronic signals
• Increase frequency of delivery
• Reduce raw material inventory value
• Improve efficiency of boxing operations
• Increase speed of delivery

Develop Project Plan/ Kaizen Journal
• Add key responsible persons
• Add timelines with milestone measurements
• Develop teams – include primary operators
Case Study: Case IH – Grand Island

Case Study – Case IH – Grand Island
• Case IH is a global leader in agricultural
equipment. With headquarters in the United
States, Case IH has a network of more than
4,900 dealers and distributors that operates in
over 160 countries. – Corporate Website
The Challenge: Grand Island Plant
• 2 major product lines and 7 minor products
• Over 200,000 pieces installed daily
• Manufacturing in 4 buildings
• Warehousing 2 miles away
• Varying production shifts
• Suppliers from all over the globe

12
The Challenge – complex layout/ pace
Fabrication
Weld
Main Spine for Assembly
Feeder Lines
Supermarkets
Sub-Areas etc
Main Paint – 1 of 3
systems
The Challenge – Product & Process
• Major value product – Axial Flow Combine
– 3 major models, 20 model variations, thousands
of option combinations
• Major process flow
– Welding and assembly in multiple buildings using
multiple paint systems. Several lines support
major product with complex movement of parts.

The Decision
• Product
– Pick high volume model
• AFX High Capacity
• Process
– Pick major component that travels major
processes – fab, weld, paint, assemble, ship
• Grain Tank

Measurements
• Primary measurements taken
– Cycle time : Area lead time : Utilization
– Takt time – different paces due to mixed model vs
dedicated lines
– Inventory : EPE : Changeover time
– Number of shifts/associates

2009 observation highlights
• High inventory especially pre-assembly areas
• Delays across lines despite Andon system
• Imbalance/overtime /high cycle times
• Excessive transportation
• Complicated electronic signals difficult to
match with physical movement

Challenges to Future State beyond 09
• Reduce inventory while doubling output
• Balance lines to reduce resource waste/takt
• Improve material delivery flow/reliability
