Find out about value stream management practices and platforms, their adoption, and how to implement them in your organization in our flagship research.
In the third year of our research, we can clearly see increased adoption of VSM practices and platforms. The data also shows how using these ways of working and tools positively influences organizational outcomes. You can use these learnings to help your organization discover why a focus on flow and business outcomes from the customer perspective will make you more successful.
This year we discovered:

Connecting value streams means teams are 4 times as likely to have a lead time of less than one hour
Elite performers are twice as likely to be using a VSMP as low or medium-performers
Elite and high performers are 20% more likely to measure value outcomes often or always than low or medium performers
Elite and high performers are 3-4x more likely to align people to value streams than low performers
