Learn how to create a current
state value stream map
Value Stream Mapping is a Lean Manufacturing tool that through the flow diagram can provide documenting every step of a manufacturing process. For the start simply put timeline objects from library and continue to create diagram. After that put it to specific place object that illustrate processes of the production. Many lean practitioners use Value Stream Mapping as a fundamental tool to identify waste, cut process cycle times, and implement process improvement.

A Process Flow Diagram (PFD) is a diagram which shows the relationships between the main components in a system. Process Flow Diagrams are widely used by engineers in chemical and process engineering, they allows to indicate the general flow of plant process streams and equipment, helps to design the petroleum refineries, petrochemical and chemical plants, natural gas processing plants, and many other industrial facilities.

Working with information can be quite tedious, furthermore, some data can be quite difficult to perceive without any graphic representation. So, to facilitate your work, you can use business diagrams, such as simple flowcharts or Gantt charts for project management and orgcharts for clarifying your company structure. You can use a proper software, like ConceptDraw Pro, draw them on paper, or use whiteboards, but it is more convenient to use a digital tool.
This diagram shows a cross-functional flowchart that was made fore telecom service provider. A workflow of a common telecommunication service provider has a rather branched structure. Thus, it is useful to have a flow chart to visualize the sequences and interrelations of the work flow steps. Business process flowchart contains 17 processes and 4 decision points,that are distributed through 2 lines depicting the participants involved. Also there are connectors that show the data flow within processes. This flowchart displays a detailed model of the telecom service trading process, as well as all participants in the process and how they interact with each other.
