Value Stream Mapping - Symbols

The document describes various symbols used in value stream mapping, grouping them into four categories: process symbols, material symbols, information symbols, and general symbols. Process symbols represent different types of processes like dedicated, shared, and workcells. Material symbols depict the flow of materials like push arrows, pull systems, and transport methods. Information symbols illustrate information flow, such as production kanbans, electronic data, and verbal communication. General symbols provide additional context through elements like timelines, improvement ideas, and extended mapping details.
