HOW
​
-
Identify the steps on the mapping of Added Value then Non Added Value, as the client perceives them.

WHAT
​
The cycle time of a process is divided into 3 types of tasks:

-
The tasks without value added but necessary for the company that is called necessary non value-added (for example the archiving of invoices)
-
The tasks that bring no value to the customer and the company = WASTAGES.
