Get the RIGHT Things Done with Value Stream Mapping Workshops
Presentation Synopsis: A value stream map is a Lean tool and identifies all of the key activities from customer request to delivery.

Traditionally a manufacturing tool, Robert and his Barrington Consulting colleagues have incorporated IT systems and other metrics into the tool that are critical to service industries. Robert will show you how value stream mapping workshops have been used with Halifax Transit, Edmonton Transit, and the Province of NS, to create a future state vision and an action plan to get there.
