Join us for this webinar on critical Lean Six Sigma processes with Dr. Pat Hammett, the Lead Faculty for the University of Michigan College of Engineering's Six Sigma Programs.
Value stream mapping is widely used as a tool for process improvement within the Lean Six Sigma methodology.
Helping identify waste and reduce total lead time, a core strength of VSM is that it requires practitioners to consider how units flow, and how information follows for support.
Register for this webinar to learn how Dr. Hammett uses value stream mapping within a lab turnaround process to create a basic productivity model that explains the gap between a system's theoretical capacity, and its actual throughput.
