    Where Lean Flow Skills Lead in Sweden

    Why Swedish Employers Want Them

    Value stream mapping is a practical lean skill that Swedish employers prize across automotive, machinery, life sciences, electronics and logistics. As plants electrify, green-industrial projects scale and cost pressure rises, teams need people who can see waste and redesign flow. The capability supports roles from manufacturing and process engineer through quality, supply chain and continuous improvement management, and here is what the market is showing right now.

    Module 2: What is Value Stream Mapping

    • Understanding the purpose, origins, and core principles of Value Stream Mapping as a lean tool
    • Distinguishing between VSM and traditional process maps, swimlane diagrams, and flowcharts
    • Exploring the two-map framework: current state mapping and future state design
    • Understanding when and how VSM is used within lean transformation and continuous improvement programmes

    Module 3: Benefits of VSM

    • Identifying how VSM supports waste elimination across the eight types of lean waste
    • Understanding how VSM improves process efficiency by providing a shared visual of the entire value stream
    • Exploring how VSM supports lean transformation by connecting improvement projects to a clear future state vision
    • Reviewing case examples where VSM led to measurable reductions in lead time, inventory, and defect rates

    Module 4: Common Mistakes in VSM

    • Recognising the impact of stakeholder gaps, including insufficient cross-functional involvement in mapping sessions
    • Understanding how resistance to change affects VSM adoption and how to address it proactively
    • Identifying mistakes related to neglecting the impact of proposed future state changes on downstream processes
    • Exploring other common pitfalls such as mapping at the wrong level of detail, skipping data collection, and failing to act on future state designs

    Module 5: Project Phases

    • Understanding the preparation phase including scoping the value stream, selecting the team, and setting objectives
    • Developing a value stream charter that defines the improvement scope, boundaries, goals, and success criteria
    • Planning data collection activities and establishing baseline metrics before beginning the current state walk
    • Aligning project phases with lean project management practices and organisational improvement governance

    Module 6: Understanding Current State

    • Conducting the VSM kick-off meeting and aligning the team on mapping scope and objectives
    • Performing value stream walks to observe and document actual process steps, flows, and information movement
    • Using standard VSM icons and notation to represent production processes, inventory, push arrows, and information flows
    • Populating data boxes with cycle time, changeover time, uptime, and other key process metrics
    • Identifying bottlenecks, wait times, and waste accumulation points in the current state map
    • Adding timeline swim lanes to calculate total lead time and process time across the value stream

    Module 7: Designing Future State

    • Applying the eight future state design questions to guide improvement decisions for the new value stream layout
    • Setting target metrics for cycle time, lead time, inventory levels, and flow efficiency in the future state
    • Using Kaizen bursts to mark specific improvement opportunities on the future state map
    • Documenting the future state map and communicating the target condition to stakeholders

    Module 8: Execution Planning

    • Defining improvement objectives derived from the gap between current state and future state maps
    • Identifying and allocating the resources, tools, and team members needed to execute the improvement plan
    • Selecting KPIs and establishing baseline measurements to track progress against future state targets
    • Conducting risk assessment for the execution plan and building mitigation strategies for common barriers

    Module 9: Plan Execution

    • Implementing the improvement plan using structured project management and lean execution techniques
    • Monitoring progress against KPIs and updating the value stream map to reflect improvements achieved
    • Communicating progress and results to stakeholders through visual management and structured review meetings
    • Embedding improvements into standard work and establishing ongoing measurement to sustain future state performance

    Skills You Will Build

    From Current State to Future State

    This hands-on programme takes you through the full VSM cycle, from Lean foundations and standard symbols to current-state mapping, analysis, future-state design and implementation planning. You practise on realistic scenarios throughout the day.

    Define and Scope a Value Stream

    You will learn what value stream mapping is and how to select the right product or service family to map, so you focus effort where flow and value matter most across the operation.

    Draw an Accurate Current-State Map

    Walk the process, gather real data through a Gemba walk, and build a current-state map that shows how work actually flows today, from customer demand back to supplier.

    Expose the Eight Wastes of Lean

    Read the map to reveal the eight wastes (DOWNTIME), find the bottleneck, and separate value-added from non-value-added activity so you target the highest-impact problems.

    Calculate Takt, Cycle and Lead Time

    Work out takt time, cycle time and total lead time, and use the value-added ratio to quantify waste and size the opportunity for improvement in clear, defensible numbers.

    Design a Leaner Future-State Map

    Apply the future-state design questions to introduce flow, pull systems and levelling, then draw a future-state map that sets a realistic, leaner target for the value stream.

    Build a Kaizen Implementation Plan

    Turn the future-state vision into a sequenced improvement roadmap with Kaizen events, owners, metrics and review points so the gains are delivered and sustained over time.

    What Our Learners Say

    Applied It the Same Week

    "The hands-on mapping exercises made everything click. I went back and ran a current-state map of our packing line the same week, and we spotted waiting waste we had walked past for years."

    Erik Lindqvist

    Process Engineer

    Confident to Run My Own Workshop

    "Clear, practical and paced well for one day. The trainer explained takt time and the eight wastes with examples I recognised from my own plant. I now feel confident facilitating a mapping workshop myself."

    Anna Bergstrom

    Continuous Improvement Specialist

    Structure I Was Missing

    "A very useful skill to add. Learning the standard symbols and how to build a future-state map gave me a structured way to plan improvements rather than jumping to solutions too early."

    Johan Nilsson

    Supply Chain Analyst

    A Shared Plan for the Whole Team

    "We booked the onsite session for our operations team and mapped one of our real value streams together. Everyone left with the same picture of the waste and an agreed plan for the first Kaizen events."

    Karin Ohlsson

    Operations Manager, Automotive Sector

    Real Workplace Transfer

    "As an L&D lead I wanted practical training with real workplace transfer, not slideware. This delivered. The team now uses value stream mapping as a standard tool in our improvement reviews."

    Frequently Asked Questions

    Here's everything you may ask...

    Value stream mapping (VSM) is a Lean technique for visualising the full flow of materials and information needed to bring a product or service to the customer. It makes waste, bottlenecks and improvement opportunities visible in a single, shared view, and is rooted in the Toyota Production System.
