What does the Value Stream: A Complete Guide - 2019 Edition include?
The Value Stream: A Complete Guide - 2019 Edition includes 60+ digital files delivered via email within 24 business hours: approximately 30-40 XLSX spreadsheets (including self-scoring maturity assessments, diagnostic matrices, implementation roadmaps, and performance dashboards) and 20-30 PDF guides (including runbooks, case studies, frameworks, and briefing templates). The package features a 00_Platinum_Tier section with a master playbook, 90-day roadmap, anti-pattern catalogue, and outcomes dashboard, and is structured across 11 sequential sections from onboarding to sustainment.
The Value Stream: A Complete Guide - 2019 Edition is the definitive professional development resource for eliminating waste, accelerating delivery, and achieving operational excellence through structured value stream analysis and optimisation. Without a rigorous, repeatable methodology, you risk prolonged inefficiencies, misaligned cross-functional teams, failed Lean or Agile transformations, non-compliant process flows, and missed customer outcomes, all of which expose your organisation to competitive disadvantage and regulatory scrutiny. This comprehensive digital playbook gives you immediate access to 862 battle-tested assessment questions, seven-domain diagnostic frameworks aligned with Lean, Agile, and Value Stream Management (VSM) principles, and actionable implementation tooling so you can identify, prioritise, and execute high-impact improvements across any value chain or delivery pipeline with confidence.

How This Helps You
You gain the ability to rapidly diagnose inefficiencies and compliance gaps in any value stream, translate findings into prioritised actions, and lead transformation initiatives with authority. With this guide, you can reduce process cycle times, align cross-functional teams around customer outcomes, and build a culture of continuous improvement - directly mitigating risks such as project overruns, audit failures, and operational bottlenecks. Without it, you remain exposed to undetected waste, siloed decision-making, and transformation initiatives that stall or fail. The self-scoring tools and real-world case studies ensure you don’t just understand value stream theory - you apply it effectively, document progress, and demonstrate value to stakeholders at every stage.
