“…They carried out a practical study in a manufacturing industry for the manufacture of Machining center. Singh et al [12] covered review and classification of literature available on VSM and presented the case study of small manufacturing Indian industry in which LM implemented through VSM (Value Stream Map) as LM tool. Lead time, processing time, work in process (WIP) inventory and manpower requirement reduced.…”

“…Value stream mapping is a tool proposed to determine activities in a value stream add value within and between a product transformation process and map an optimal value stream [30,[50][51][52]. Howell and Ballard [40] referred value stream map as the process flow charts that identify specific action releases work to the next operation.…”

The lean manufacturing is a popular means of continuous improvement that has reshaped manufacturing processes, practices, and principles globally. Originating from the automobile industry, the approach has been used extensively in the manufacturing sector since the 1990s. Basically, lean manufacturing centered around the philosophy of continuously improving performances by systematically eliminating wastes in the manufacturing floor. Lean thinking was introduced to extend the concept from the manufacturing floor to a business operation level. This paper is intended to provide an overview on the concept of lean thinking, discuss in details the five key principles constituting the concept.

“…Different from conventional VSM, sustainable VSM has been proposed that incorporates metrics for sustainability in Brown et al [23]. The reader can refer to Sundar et al [24] and Singh et al [25] for a literature review on VSM. Table 1 summarizes some of the applications of VSM in different areas.…”

“…Therefore, to overcome the weakness of VSM, the integration of VSM and simulation has become popular in literature in recent years. One of the first studies in this group belongs to Disney et al [25] in which a simulation model is used with VSM to improve the performance of British Telecommunications PLC. McDonald et al [7] have utilized VSM in a manufacturing plant to solve problems.…”
