How Value Stream Mapping (Lean) Works in SolveRight

When you run a decision through SolveRight, Value Stream Mapping (Lean) is one of up to 155 frameworks that analyze your options simultaneously. The AI extractor identifies 5 key data points from your decision description, then the quantitative-formula rubric computes a normalized 0-100 score for each option. This score is combined with results from other frameworks to produce your overall ranking, with contradiction detection highlighting where Value Stream Mapping (Lean)disagrees with other methodologies.

Value Stream Mapping (Lean) — Frequently Asked Questions

What is Value Stream Mapping (Lean)?+
Maps end-to-end process showing value-added vs. waste to identify improvement opportunities. In SolveRight, Value Stream Mapping (Lean) uses a quantitative-formula rubric to compute a normalized 0–100 score for each option.
When should I use Value Stream Mapping (Lean)?+
Value Stream Mapping (Lean) is best suited for Operations & Process decisions. It evaluates factors like process steps, cycle time, wait time, making it valuable when you need optimizing processes, workflows, and resource allocation.
How does SolveRight use Value Stream Mapping (Lean)?+
SolveRight runs Value Stream Mapping (Lean) alongside up to 154 other frameworks simultaneously. The AI extractor identifies 5 key data points from your decision description, then the quantitative-formula rubric computes deterministic scores. If Value Stream Mapping (Lean) disagrees with other frameworks, contradiction detection highlights the divergence.
