Energy Value Stream Mapping

Integrate the power of Lean with the most powerful and effective tool, Energy Value Stream Mapping (EnVSM™), for analyzing and reducing energy consumption/costs. The result is a controlled energy reduction plan that will significantly impact your bottom line $$$, improve your service to your clients while reducing your carbon footprint.

Those organizations who practice KAIZEN Lean have known for years that a robust Lean transformation reduces the carbon footprint of a facility by reducing energy consumption. Until now reduced energy consumption has been a by-product of KAIZEN Lean implementation and we have not had a vehicle with which to capture the energy waste or to quantify it.

The EnVSM™ may be developed concurrently with the Enterprise Value Stream Mapping or independently. It creates a visual representation of the energy use within a Value Stream and identifies the value and non-value add energy consumption. From the drawing and analysis of the Current State, a comprehensive Future State and Implementation Plan is created to methodically eliminate waste while improving your processes and giving you the ability to accurately measure the energy improvements.
