Value Stream Mapping (VSM) Training Course Overview:

Value Stream Mapping training enables Chicago students to visually summarize processes highlighting their waste, and opportunities for improvement. Value Stream Mapping is an essential tool of Lean Manufacturing. 'Value stream' refers to the fact that the mapping is depicting the process flow by which raw materials, information, etc. are altered and combined forming something for which customers are willing to pay. Along the way, any actions for which customers are not willing to pay are considered waste and highlighted on the map. Wastes generally take the form of downtime, inventory, inspection, etc.; manifestations of the Seven Deadly Sins.

Excellent choice! Railways, waterways, and airline routes emanate from Chicago like rays of the sun. Since its beginning, the area connected local watersheds with navigable waterways of the Mississippi River and Great Lakes. The the Illinois and Michigan Canal opened. Galena and Chicago Union Railroad was built. Steel skyscrapers were erected. Parks were established. Chicago became the nation's railroad center, and by 1910 over 20 railroads operated passenger service out of 6 different downtown terminals. WWII spurred manufacturing especially steel production. Universities and an airport were built. Now, Chicago has the largest number of highways and greatest amount of railroad freight in the US, and one of the busiest airports in the world. By population, Chicago is 3rd largest in the US and #1 in Illinois. So, if you get bored in Chicago, then the problem is on your end. Options include Navy Pier, Shedd Aquarium, an Architecture River Cruise, Millennium Park, Cloud Gate, museums, some of the most unique (and expensive) shopping in the world, and more!
