Abstract

The chapter discusses the application of Value Stream Mapping (VSM) in an electronic-based manufacturing company to detect and eliminate wastes, thereby enhancing production performance and efficiency. It begins by identifying the seven types of wastes recognized by the Toyota Production System and the importance of VSM as a powerful tool for waste detection. The methodology of VSM implementation is detailed, including product and component selection, Gemba-walk, and drawing the VSM current state. A case study of a contract manufacturer of printed circuit board assemblies is presented, highlighting the identification of significant wastes such as excess inventory and unbalanced process cycle time. The chapter concludes by emphasizing the effectiveness of VSM in identifying improvement opportunities and recommending actions to optimize production performance.
