Unlock Efficiency and Understand Value Stream Management: Sign Up for a Value Stream Assessment

Optimizing the software delivery process is essential for any organization striving to stay competitive. To help you achieve this, we offer a Value Stream Assessment—a complimentary, virtual program available for any Broadcom customer. It’s specifically designed to help you identify inefficiencies, reduce waste, and maximize the flow of value to your customers. Consider finding data where teams cut and paste from one tool to another.  Consider how teams can best serve their customers when data is automatically flowing from the tools in your value stream.  Imagine if you could eliminate the challenges of fragmented data and outdated information.

This assessment will provide you with a personalized value stream mapping guide tailored to your unique needs. Let’s explore what this process entails and why it can be a game-changer for your business.

What is a Value Stream Assessment?

The primary goal of the Value Stream Assessment is to pinpoint areas in your software delivery process where improvements can be made to optimize efficiency and reduce waste. By analyzing your entire value stream, our value stream experts help you uncover bottlenecks, redundant steps, and opportunities for improvement. You’ll gain valuable insights into how work flows through your system and receive actionable recommendations to enhance your software delivery pipeline.

Key phases of the assessment

1. Pre-Discovery. In this phase, we define objectives and assemble the team for a Transactional Process Improvement (TPI) workshop. Together, we map your toolchain from end to end, offering immediate recommendations for process enhancements.
2. Discovery. Here, we dive deeper into the artifacts within your tools and create baseline metrics. This phase allows us to uncover bottlenecks and identify areas for improvement.
3. Design. This is where we shift our focus from the current state to the future state. We’ll help you map out an ideal workflow, establish key metrics, and define lean strategies to guide your team toward an optimized future.
4. Deliver (optional). If selected, this phase involves implementing the recommended changes and closely monitoring the results. We’ll continue to make adjustments to ensure lasting improvements.
