Services

Four services.
One flow.

Each service has its own station in the project. You can join at any point, but most clients start with the free scan.

A11 day + 1 week

Value stream scan

See where it pinches in one day.

We spend a day on your shop floor or in your department. With a stopwatch, a clipboard and lots of questions, we follow one product, order or file from arrival to departure. We count the piles, measure the waiting and talk to operators and staff. Seven days later you have the value stream map with the five biggest leaks.

Duration
1 day + 1 week

Who it is for
For anyone who wants to know where it pinches before any money is spent.

What you get

  • One day on the floor
  • Value stream map of your process
  • Top 5 wastes with an estimate in hours and euros
  • Free of charge

  1. Join the daily start

    We start when your team starts. No presentation, just looking.

    From step to step with stopwatch and clipboard. We count every pile.

  3. Talk on the floor

    Short conversations with the people who do the work every day. They know the most.

  4. Calculate

    Waiting time, processing time, how often something comes back. All on one map.

  5. Share first picture

    With you and two or three people from the floor: is this right?

  6. Ready

    The map and your top 5 follow the week after, on paper.
