Reader Comments"An excellent practical treatment of the subject. Most conventional texts are overly academic and do not treat the subject well." —Donal Hughes, Lecturer, University College Dublin "I like it. Well organized, with good graphics, good links, and good examples." —Imre Andrew Pattantyus, President, Strategic Modularity Inc. Quarterman Lee has been a renowned expert in the field of manufacturing improvement for many years. His latest work, Value Stream and Process Mapping, is the most comprehensive and practical book on the subject to date. Value stream and process mapping are both critical tools to a successful lean transformation, and this book is truly an implementation guide that includes many of the details that are not found in other works on the subject. —Darren Dolcemascolo, EMS Consulting Group, Inc. I loved the cartoon style graphics- it made it fun to read & easy to understand. Nice way to introduce Lean to people who are not familiar with lean. Good training material! I look forward to the Kanban book since I know you will use the same style to convey your messages - I will buy same. Thank you . Nice job! —Jim McCarthy, Lean Champion, Tescom I was impressed with the simplicity of design and yet very informative. It was a great purchase! —Bob Norfield, Lean Quality Very useful great use of tools and guides in the appendices —Stephanie Watson, RMO Project Manager, Waitemata District Health Board, Auckland New Zealand Clean and concise. A great primer for someone learning this topic. —William V. Grebenik, Owner, Panthera Solutions, Inc. I thought it was very useful. Simple and clear to understand. —Kurtis Jetsel, Sr. Manager, Lockheed Well developed and with a to-the-point style —Hassan, Quality Systems Consultant, Specialized Industrial & Management Systems The Guide to Value Stream Mapping would be helpful as a starting point for Value Stream Mapping or as a companion to other guidebooks. This book has some helpful tips on facilitating group VSM exercises - not just how to draw the diagrams - and helps put VSMs in the greater lean context, with photos and examples of related lean practices - instead of focusing on doing VSMs for the sake of doing VSMs. —Mark Graban, LeanBlog.org Good resource, well organized. Will keep it "on top" for a long while, I expect. —Roy F. Deshazer, Vice President, Full Circle Enterprises, Inc. Very easy and to the point. Well displayed very easy understanding. —Jack Lindsay, Multiple site Plant Manager, Reynolds Food Packaging Well written, with clear objectives and goals, —Chris marks, QAE, Whitlock Steering Great, very useful, down to earth, easy to understand and apply. —Bob Healy, President, Strategic Impact |
