Examples |
|
| Manufacturing - Plant level value stream mapping for discrete parts and assemblies that allows calculation of takt time, lead time, and capacities. | ||
| Manufacturing Network - Supply chain logistics, and distribution value stream mapping for discrete parts and assemblies that allows calculation of demand, cost, and lead times. | ||
| Processing - Plant level value stream mapping of chemicals and food processes that allows calculations of takt time, lead time, and capacities. | ||
| Processing Network - Supply chain, logistics, and distribution value stream mapping of chemicals and food processes that allows calculation of demand, cost, and lead times. | ||
| Enterprise - for enterprise level value stream mapping. | ||
| Transactional Pro - merges key concepts from business modeling and lean into a unified value stream mapping solution to improve transactional value streams. | ||
| Healthcare - for capturing, calculating, and visualizing lead time, capacity, resource, and cost associated with healthcare value streams. | ||
| Warehousing - for warehouse process mapping. | ||
| MCT (Manufacturing Critical-path Time) - for drawing the MCT flow, timeline chart, and flow summary. |
eVSM Wizards
Tutorials |
Examples |
|
| Kanban - to calculate kanban sizing and quantities. | ||
| Facility Time Pro - allows direct specification by each weekday of times, shift patterns, and related costs. Summary values from the wizard can be used on production maps. | ||
| Manufacturing Multi Station - calculates the properties of an equivalent machine that has the same capacity as multiple machines with differing properties. Designed to be used with the Quick Manufacturing stencil. | ||
| Processing Multi Station - calculates the properties of an equivalent machine that has the same capacity as multiple machines with differing properties. Designed to be used with the Quick Processing stencil. | ||
| EPEI - calculate min possible and actual EPEI (Every Part Every Interval) intervals for multiple products going through a single station with differing demands and lot sizes. | ||
| POLCA (Paired-cell Overlapping Loops of Cards with Authorization) - is a variant of Kanban, suitable for companies which produce many different and/or customized products. | ||
| Standard Work - allows layout of standard work with manual, machine, and walk times and creates a standard work chart. | ||
| Spaghetti Diagram - allows you to draw paths on a floor plan and then export a Path Report with distances to Excel. | ||
| A3 Report - Create A3 Reports in Visio with a starter template and a dedicated stencil of standard shapes from eVSM. | ||
| Event Circle - allows you to visualize all the transactions in a given pathway or process. |
