Value Added Stream Mapping
Optimizing Workflow Efficiency Across Oil & Gas, Marine & Industrial Projects
At Orbit International Survey Services, we leverage Value Stream Mapping (VSM) as a powerful visual tool to analyze, optimize, and streamline complex workflows especially within oil & gas, shipyard, dimensional control, and engineering services operations.
VSM identifies every step in a process from concept to completion highlighting both value-adding and non-value-adding activities. This enables our clients to pinpoint inefficiencies, reduce waste, and increase productivity across project lifecycles.
Our VSM Approach Includes
End-to-End Process Mapping
Visualize the entire workflow from material receiving, engineering design, fabrication, inspection, and final delivery.
Bottleneck & Waste Identification
Isolate delays, rework loops, and communication gaps that hinder schedule adherence or impact quality.
Lead Time & Cycle Time Analysis
Quantify value-added vs. non-value-added time across tasks to improve resource utilization.
Integration with Lean & Six Sigma
Combine VSM with Lean and Six Sigma methodologies for maximum process optimization and cost reduction.
Action-Oriented Future State Mapping
Propose optimized process flows to support faster project execution, fewer quality defects, and lower costs.
Digital Enablement
Use digital tools to simulate process changes and track improvements in real time.
