    Abstract :

    An efficient and qualitative product can be achieved by implementing LM. LM is referred as approaches initially developed by Toyota that focuses on elimination of waste in all forms. Value stream mapping is a visual representation of all the specific activities, including the flow of material and information, which occurs along the value stream selected for a product or family. This paper illustrates the VSM implementation tactic as a lean tool in manufacturing and assembly industries. The purpose of this paper is to highlight the effective tactic of the VSM implementation for process parameter improvements by different authors.
