Process Improvement tools

Value Stream Mapping

Value Stream Mapping is our most popular process improvement tool.

And when you purchase any one of our bundles of templates, you get a free 5S audit form for workplace organization, which is often the first important step on your Lean Journey.

Spaghetti Diagram and Standard Work

The Layout Diagram is another process improvement template that  can be used for simple floor planning purposes, but it really shines as a spaghetti mapping tool for Lean process improvement. And Standard Work is arguably the most important of all Lean tools - because if the people doing the actual work aren't doing it the way that everyone agreed was the best way to do it - then your entire lean effort was wasted.

Another process improvement tool, the swim lane cross functional flow chart is extended with several process improvement templates that encompass all process engineering concepts taught within The Reengineering Handbook, by Ray Manganelli.
