Value Stream Mapper
Overview
The Value Stream Mapper skill provides comprehensive capabilities for mapping, analyzing, and improving value streams. It supports current state process flow mapping, material and information flow visualization, and future state design with actionable implementation roadmaps.
Capabilities
- Current state process flow mapping
- Material and information flow visualization
- Lead time and cycle time calculation
- Value-added vs. non-value-added time analysis
- Seven wastes (TIMWOODS) identification
- Future state design with improvement targets
- Implementation roadmap generation
Used By Processes
- LEAN-001: Value Stream Mapping
- LEAN-003: Kaizen Event Facilitation
- CI-001: Operational Excellence Program Design
Tools and Libraries
- Process mining tools
- Visio/Lucidchart APIs
- VSM templates
- Data visualization libraries
Usage
skill: value-stream-mapper
inputs:
process_scope: "Order-to-delivery for product line A"
mapping_type: "current_state" # current_state | future_state
data_sources:
- erp_system: "SAP"
- mes_data: "production_logs"
outputs:
- current_state_map
- waste_analysis
- lead_time_metrics
- future_state_design
- implementation_roadmap
Workflow
- Define Scope - Identify product family and process boundaries
- Gather Data - Collect process times, inventory levels, and flow information
- Map Current State - Document material and information flows
- Identify Wastes - Categorize and quantify the seven wastes
- Design Future State - Create improved process design
- Plan Implementation - Develop prioritized action roadmap
Integration Points
- ERP systems (SAP, Oracle, Microsoft Dynamics)
- Manufacturing Execution Systems (MES)
- Process mining tools
- Project management platforms
Recommended Agent Skills
Expand your agent's capabilities with these related and highly-rated skills.
gsd-tools
Central utility skill for GSD operations. Provides config parsing, slug generation, timestamps, path operations, and orchestrates calls to other specialized skills. Acts as the unified entry point that the original gsd-tools.cjs provided via its lib/ modules (commands, config, core, init).
model-profile-resolution
Resolve model profile (quality/balanced/budget) at orchestration start and map agents to specific models. Enables cost/quality tradeoffs by selecting appropriate AI models for each agent role.
verification-suite
Plan structure validation, phase completeness checks, reference integrity verification, and artifact existence confirmation. Provides the structured verification layer ensuring GSD artifacts are well-formed and complete.
state-management
STATE.md reading, writing, and field-level updates. Provides cross-session state persistence via .planning/STATE.md with structured fields for current task, completed phases, blockers, decisions, and quick tasks.
git-integration
Git commit patterns, formats, and conventions for GSD methodology. Provides atomic commits per task, structured commit messages, planning file commits, branch management, and milestone tag operations.
frontmatter-parsing
YAML frontmatter parsing and manipulation for .planning/ documents. Provides read, write, update, query, and validation operations on frontmatter blocks in GSD markdown artifacts.
