# Value Stream Mapping Workshop Template

Purpose: Map the current state of a value stream, calculate flow and lead time, design an improved future state, and plan the kaizen actions to get there.

- Duration: 240 minutes
- Cadence: As needed
- Participants: Cross-functional value-stream team (5-10 people)

## Agenda

- [ ] Scope one value stream (20 min)
- [ ] Map the current state (70 min)
- [ ] Calculate lead time and process time (30 min)
- [ ] Identify waste and constraints (40 min)
- [ ] Design the future state (60 min)
- [ ] Build the transition plan (20 min)

## Facilitator tips

- Map the real current state by walking it.
- Capture lead time vs process time; the gap is the waste.
- Keep the future state ambitious but achievable.
- End with a sequenced action plan, not just two maps.
