Term Definition
Value Stream Map (VSM)

Similar to a process map, it diagrams the flow of a process. However, it doesn't document decision points or detailed process steps, but instead focuses on the timeliness (efficiency) within the flow of products through the process by tracking value-added and non-value-added steps, process cycle times, take time, inventory, staffing, etc.
