Sustainability-integrated value stream mapping with process mining

Value stream mapping is a well-established tool for analyzing and optimizing value streams in production. In its conventional form, it requires a high level of manual effort and is often inefficient in volatile and high-variance environments. The idea of digitizing value stream mapping to increase e...

description Value stream mapping is a well-established tool for analyzing and optimizing value streams in production. In its conventional form, it requires a high level of manual effort and is often inefficient in volatile and high-variance environments. The idea of digitizing value stream mapping to increase efficiency has thus been put forward. A common means suggested for digitization is Process Mining, a field related to Data Science and Process Management. Furthermore, adding sustainability aspects to value stream mapping has also been subject to research. Regarding the ongoing climate crisis and companies’ endeavors to improve overall sustainability, integrating sustainability into value stream mapping must be deemed equally relevant. This research paper provides an overview of the state of the art of Process Mining-based and sustainability-integrated value stream mapping, proposes a framework for a combined approach, and presents technical details for the implementation of such an approach, including a validation from practice.
