Value Stream Mapping for Maintenance

Recent studies confirm average maintenance productivity hovering at a staggering 25%!  This reality resides at the core of a fundamental maintenance paradigm: As maintenance & reliability professionals, how can we find time to work on improving reliability with growing backlogs and restrictive maintenance budgets? The capacity answer can be found within identifying and removing day-to-day waste found in our existing systems which is often considered “it’s just the way it is” and often blends into the background.

Lean Maintenance Success Principles:

1. Open Flow of your Maintenance System
2. With freed Capacity; Do the Right Work

We help to identify your hidden capacity through Value Stream Mapping for Maintenance

At the onset of every successful LEAN effort resides a powerful tool which creates awareness, identifies value added steps vs. Muda (waste), and creates a sense of urgency to take the correct action immediately. Value Stream Mapping (VSM) as well as all other LEAN tools can be translated and applied directly to your maintenance process.
