English abstract:
This paper is about a new methodical approach of the joint and simultaneous application of Value Stream Mapping and Methods-Time Measurement (MTM). The focus of Value Stream Mapping is the alignment and combination of individual processes to form a continuous, efficient value stream through the organisation (macro consideration). MTM provide an exact determination of times and focuses on executions of individual tasks and working places (mirco consideration). A hybrid optimisation of added value originates from the reasonable and useful combination of Value Stream Mapping and Methods-Time Measurement for increasing productivity, reducing lead time and exact determination of times.
Keywords:
value stream mapping, MTM - methods-times measurement, productivity, added value optimisation
