Key process variables should be measured, using metrics like percent defective, operation
costs, elapsed time, backlog quantity, and documentation errors.
Cause and effect can be described as a tool that can aid with the prioritization of key
process input variables.
The matrix lists key process output variables horizontally and key process input variables
vertically.
The process input variables results are compared to determine which input variables have
the greatest effect on the output variables.

The necessary quality, machine, personnel, materials, and supplier resources must be coordinated and made available as needed.

The value stream for a product family may cross department boundaries in the company.
This creates the potential for difficulties in coordinating an effective value stream project.
Such problems call for the creation of a new position for a value stream manager.
This manager must have the authority to make things happen and should report to the
plant manager.

Where is the pacemaker process? (This process controls the tempo of the value stream.)
Can the process be levelled?
What is the increment of work to be released for kanban use?
What process improvements can be used: changeover, machine uptime, kaizen events, SMED, etc..?

The final step in the value stream mapping process is to develop an implementation plan for establishing the future state.

A flow chart, or process map, is useful to people familiar with a process, as well as those that have a need to understand
a process.
Flow charts can be used to identify improvement opportunities as illustrated by the following sequence:

As an example, suppose the results of the interviews revealed the following process to control nonconforming
material:
The non-conformance is
discovered.
The nonconforming
material is segregated
from conforming
material.
The non-conformance is
documented.
The paperwork is
