It's a common question: can you use Visio for value stream mapping? Let's take a look.
Value stream mapping with Visio and eVSM
When it comes to value stream mapping (VSM), you might think of using Visio software, due to its flexible diagramming capabilities. But when you need an all-in-one solution that goes beyond basic diagramming and into real Lean functionality, eVSM is the solution that extends Visio into a powerful VSM tool tailored for manufacturing, supply chain, and other complex process flows. eVSM is built on Visio, so Visio users are very comfortable using it, but it is packed with advanced Lean tools and automated calculations that streamlien VSM efforts.
Can you use Visio for Value Stream Mapping? With eVSM - yes!
Value stream maps need to be more than just a pretty picture. With eVSM, you can draw the maps, and then you and your team can make data-driven decisions with Lean tools and custom calculations built directly into the platform. Our software adds more impact to the value stream mapping you're already doing - and with less stress and hassle.
VSM tools built into the software
Lean tools at your fingertips: eVSM comes loaded with a suite of Lean tools that help you measure and enhance process efficiency. No more struggling with manual calculations; our automated tools do the heavy lifting for you. This allows you to focus on improvement, not just mapping.
Integrated calculations for real-time analysis: typical Visio users find themselves limited when calculating critical Lean metrics such as cycle time, takt time, and process cycle efficiency. eVSM's built-in calculations save hours and provide reliable insights that go far above and beyond what traditional Visio can deliver.
