This guide serves as a roadmap for integrating digital value stream mapping (eVSM) into your Lean deployment to improve production processes. Lean, with its mapping component, value stream mapping (VSM), has endured as a process improvement methodology for more than 25 years. VSM is a metrics-based analytical mapping method with simple calculations for Lean metrics such as Takt Time, VA, NVA, Capacity, OEE, etc., however:
- The calculations and charting associated with value stream maps can be tedious
- It’s hard to keep updating the calculations for “what-if” studies
- Manual calculations can be prone to error.
Digital VSM was introduced as a complement to the initial paper-and-pencil map. The eVSM software has been used to create Digital VSMs for many years, but it has also encountered a couple of hurdles:
- Lean application has expanded and is applied to increasingly complex value streams
- Product variants (mixed models) have proliferated so that many variants are now made with shared resources
Creating and analyzing mixed model value stream maps with only paper and pencil, however, is practically unfeasible. The eVSM program has been revamped for the mixed model production setting and is now accessible as eVSM Mix for creating and analyzing Digital Mix VSMs. The eVSM Mix software reintroduces VSM as a fundamental tool for lean practitioners working in mixed-model situations. This guide illustrates Digital Mix VSMs created with the eVSM Mix software, shows how to use them analytically for “what-if” studies, and highlights best practices for deployment.

About the Author
With over a decade at The eVSM Group, Girish Hidaduggi has significantly contributed to the evolution of Mix Technology. He oversees product testing, eLearning content creation, and research on integrating environmental factors into value streams. Girish also leads the eVSM Academics division to bridge the gap between academics and industry needs. Girish holds an MBA from Symbiosis University and an engineering degree from Visvesvaraya Technological University.
Jon Fournier, an industrial engineering graduate from Western New England College, has been with The eVSM Group for 12 years and leads software development for the group. He has innovated to allow the software to create and analyze digital mixed model value stream maps. Jon created an eLearning framework that can be used as an authoring environment for learning by doing.
Herman Ranpuria is a co-founder and vice president of operations at The eVSM Group. He has authored comprehensive eLearning materials for digital value stream mapping. A mechanical engineering graduate from the University of Nottingham, he has over 20 years of lean methods application experience, including 8 years in aerodynamics engineering at Rolls-Royce.
Dilesh Patel is Co-founder and CEO of The eVSM Group, Dilesh is an expert in leveraging digital tools for lean deployments. He has a strong background in engineering consulting, software development, and product management from his 20 years working at Siemens. An award-winning innovator, Dilesh holds engineering degrees from MIT and the University of Southampton.

Information regarding the right of withdrawal
Statutory right to withdraw
You have the right to withdraw from this contract within 14 days without giving any reason.
The withdrawal period will expire after 14 days from the day on which you acquire, or a third party other than the carrier and indicated by you acquires, physical possession of the last good or the last lot or piece.
To exercise the right of withdrawal, electronically fill in and submit a clear statement on our website, under "My Purchases" in "My Account". We will communicate to you an acknowledgement of receipt of such a withdrawal on a durable medium (e.g. by e-mail) without delay.
To meet the withdrawal deadline, it is sufficient for you to send your communication concerning your exercise of the right of withdrawal before the withdrawal period has expired.
Effects of withdrawal
If you withdraw from this contract, we will reimburse to you all payments received from you, including the costs of delivery (except for the supplementary costs arising if you chose a type of delivery other than the least expensive type of standard delivery offered by us).
We may make a deduction from the reimbursement for loss in value of any goods supplied, if the loss is the result of unnecessary handling by you.
We will make the reimbursement without undue delay, and not later than 14 days after the day on which we are informed about your decision to withdraw from this contract.
We will make the reimbursement using the same means of payment as you used for the initial transaction, unless you have expressly agreed otherwise; in any event, you will not incur any fees as a result of such reimbursement.
We may withhold reimbursement until we have received the goods back, or you have supplied evidence of having sent back the goods, whichever is the earliest.
You shall send back the goods or hand them over to moluna, Greven, Germany, without undue delay and in any event not later than 14 days from the day on which you communicate your withdrawal from this contract to us. The deadline is met if you send back the goods before the period of 14 days has expired. You will have to bear the direct cost of returning the goods. You are only liable for any diminished value of the goods resulting from the handling other than what is necessary to establish the nature, characteristics and functioning of the goods.
Exceptions to the right of withdrawal
The right of withdrawal does not apply to:
- The delivery of newspapers, journals or magazines with the exception of subscription contracts; and
- The supply of digital content which is not supplied on a tangible medium (e.g. on a CD or DVD) if you accepted when you placed your order that we could start to deliver it, and that you could not withdraw once delivery had started.
