As an optimization expert, you know the importance of Value Stream Mapping (VSM) in process analysis. With kyro, you have a platform that not only simplifies VSM but also ensures sustainable improvements through automation and seamless problem-solving. In kyro, VSM is not just a static tool – it’s dynamic, automated, and fully integrated. Here’s how Easy VSM works with kyro:
Identifying and Visualizing Processes
With kyro, you can effortlessly capture and visualize your processes. Using an intuitive visual representation similar to digital Post-its, you define each individual step, the teams involved, and the sequence of your workflows. Yellow Post-its represent activities, while green ones indicate the teams responsible for execution. Waiting times can be recorded using blue Post-its. Additionally, various symbols allow you to visualize the flow of operations within the process. The user-friendly interface makes it easy to illustrate even complex workflows without getting lost in details.
Calculating Key Metrics (Lead Time, Cycle Time)
kyro eliminates the need for manual calculations. Lead Time, Cycle Time, and Savings Potential are automatically calculated in real time as soon as you enter volumes and process times into the yellow Post-its. This automation provides you with an instant overview of process efficiency and highlights areas for improvement. By removing the need for manual calculations, you save valuable time and can fully focus on analysis.
Distinguishing Value-Added from Waste
kyro helps you clearly differentiate between value-adding and non-value-adding steps. Once you enter the “value-adding time” into the yellow Post-its, kyro automatically calculates the non-value-adding time. This instant feedback allows you to quickly identify bottlenecks or unnecessary activities within your workflow. With this level of transparency, you can efficiently target the right areas for improvement and eliminate waste.
Capturing and Analyzing Problems with Easy VSM
The problems uncovered using VSM can be recorded with a pink Post-It. And are automatically transferred to the Open Challenge List (OCL). kyro offers you the option of documenting and analyzing each identified problem in a structured way using a digital A3 so that no step is overlooked. Root cause problem solving (RCPS) allows you to find the root cause of the problem and define suitable measures in the next step.
Deriving and Implementing Measures (PDCA Cycle)
With kyro’s seamless integration of the PDCA cycle (Plan, Do, Check, Act), you can efficiently derive and implement measures to solve identified issues. kyro supports you through the entire process, from tracking planned actions to reviewing the achieved results. This ensures that improvements are not only implemented but also sustained over time.
