Abstract

The objective of this study is to implement the methodology based on the Value Stream Mapping (VSM) in its current state AGRONOPAL Company in the area of cable production machinery for industrialization of the nopal. The VSM helped to diagnose the current situation of the company and identify problems and waste related to the process to finally lean production techniques. The VSM analysis ends with the proposal sketch map of the future situation where the supply chain is the application of the world class companies.
