Value Streams

A value stream is the entire process through which a product or service is created and delivered to a customer, from initial idea to final delivery. It includes all the steps, activities, and people involved in transforming raw inputs into a finished product or service that provides value. By analyzing and optimizing these streams, organizations can reduce waste, improve efficiency, and ensure that customers receive quality products more quickly. Essentially, a value stream maps out the path of value creation to identify areas for improvement and streamline the flow from start to finish.
