The Value Stream Mapping (VSM) Icon Set gives you a clean, standardized way to build clear, professional value stream maps without reinventing symbols or debating notation. These icons represent the most commonly used elements in current-state and future-state value stream maps, making it easier for teams to focus on process flow, information flow, and improvement opportunities rather than formatting details.Using a consistent icon set improves communication across departments and ensures your value stream maps can be quickly understood by leaders, operators, and improvement teams alike. Whether you are mapping a manufacturing line, a transactional process, or a mixed office/production workflow, this icon set helps you visually capture material movement, data flow, inventory, delays, and decision points in a way that aligns with Lean best practices.This premium icon set is designed for repeated use in workshops, Kaizen events, training sessions, and ongoing improvement work. It pairs naturally with value stream mapping templates, A3s, and improvement charters, helping teams create maps that are clear, consistent, and easy to update as processes evolve.Use this icon set to:<ul><li>Create consistent current-state and future-state value stream maps</li><li>Improve clarity and shared understanding during mapping sessions</li><li>Reduce confusion caused by inconsistent or improvised symbols</li><li>Support Lean training, facilitation, and documentation efforts</li><li>Build professional-looking maps suitable for leadership reviews</li></ul>This is a toolkit asset, not a how-to guide, and is intended to support teams who already understand (or are learning) value stream mapping as part of a structured continuous improvement system.
