No, Value Stream Mapping is often done in Visio or similar software to determine the flow of your production process and visualize, analyze, and improve the flow of materials. This includes identifying bottlenecks, inefficiencies, and non-value-added activities and processes, which you can then eliminate to create a system that flows better. Lean Design Manufacturing and Assembly Cost Mapping includes mapping every part, process, cost, labor time, machine time, machine cost, application, you name it, and then evaluating your whole product design to see where you can eliminate unnecessary parts and reduce processes by redesigning the product itself, not just the manufacturing process. This is done in our proprietary software Design Profit, which can be used to track all metrics associated with individual parts, processes, and design changes so that you can make an informed business case for design changes, instantly knowing the ramifications of these choices.
