◳ Rev. A · Value Stream Mapping

Engineer your value stream. Not a wall of sticky notes. A calculating canvas.

Drag Lean symbols onto an engineering-grade grid, enter your cycle times, and PruneChart computes Takt, lead time and PCE to spec — live. Precision mapping, no whiteboard, no Excel.

// how it works

Drafted in three moves

The map you already know how to draw — now built to spec, with the math done for you.

STEP 01

Drag & connect

Processes, inventory, suppliers, trucks — placed on the grid and wired with snapping, typed arrows.

STEP 02

Enter the data

C/T, P/T, changeover, uptime and your own formula fields — recomputed on every keystroke.

STEP 03

Read the tolerances

Above-Takt steps flag red, the time ladder totals VA vs wait, and PCE is reported. No spreadsheet.

SYMBOLS

32 Lean node types

Processes, kanban, supermarkets, FIFO lanes, kaizen bursts — canonical geometry.

FORMULA

Custom field math

Reference fields with {C/T}; metrics recompute across the map.

TAKT

Above-Takt flags

Any step over Takt turns red instantly — the primary waste signal.

LADDER

Time ladder + PCE

VA vs wait, lead time and process cycle efficiency, computed live.

STATES

Current vs Future

Clone, improve, and compare the two states side by side.
