Value Stream Mapping Templates released by Systems2win
Inexpensive, self-paced learning programs for Value Stream Mapping
01.20.2010 – Systems2win a supplier of Excel Templates for Lean Kaizen Continuous improvement tools has introduced the Value Stream Mapping section of the Lean Starter Toolkit that includes a selection of downloadable templates, videos and instructions. This is a free downloadable trial package that covers Value Stream Mapping, and is part of a collection of over twenty templates in the Lean Starter Kit. The Systems2win Word and Excel templates and free online training are relevant to any type of organization pursuing a continuous improvement effort.
Unlike entry-level drawing tools – one of the goals of the Systems2win Value Stream Mapping templates is to educate. They come not only with on-line training, but also free training videos, and even a free self-paced learning validation tool – to ensure that the learner has actually learned.
The licensed version of the value stream mapping templates comes with a dozen templates, including ones for product family selection, value stream planning, and even supply chain value stream mapping (beyond your company’s own four walls).
The free Lean Starter Toolkit includes the trial version of 2 of the most popular templates:
1. Value Stream Mapping template
2. 2Learn Value Stream Mapping – self-paced learning validation tool
And as a free gift for attending a free webinar, Systems2win will give you the trial version of their Value Stream Mapping Power Tool – that has ALL of the most popular lean metrics pre-programmed. The VSM-PowerTool has always been the single most popular template – because the calculation powers of Excel are so familiar and powerful.
Dean Ziegler, founder of Systems2win says, “Once someone completes the 13-minute video to learn how to use Excel as a drawing tool – they will wonder why they ever bought Visio. Drawing is the easy part. Excel has all of the drawing capabilities of Visio, but Visio can’t do math. And once your managers get over being enamored with the pretty pictures, they are going to start asking the tough questions that are the entire reason for making a value stream map in the first place. ‘How much will we save? Why are we focusing on this instead of that?’ And that’s when people realize that their entry-level drawing tool doesn’t really answer the questions that a value stream map is intended to answer.”
“If you are new to Excel or the Tools of Lean, Systems2win offers one of the largest collections of on-line training resources free during your trial period. Free online training is one of the strengths behind our product offerings. There are built in support features each and every time you open a document. So we encourage newcomers to use our free training if nothing else to start or expand your Lean Journey,” added Ziegler.
Ziegler also added, “We want people to know that many of our Systems2win templates are just plain simple. In the past, we only gave away our most complex templates as trials, but now we’re giving some of the simple ones too. Our best prospect is someone that has already spent several late nights attempting to create a few of their own home-made templates, and can now truly appreciate how much time these save – and how much more professional the end results.”
