Value Stream Mapping (VSM): A visual tool used to analyze and document the steps and flow of materials and information required to deliver a product or service to the customer. [...] Those exogenous conditions need not be the ones that occurred in the past, but the FROM LEAN TO SMART MANUFACTURING | 13 LEAN PRODUCTION system is trained to self-adapt and adjust to completely new circumstances. [...] FROM LEAN TO SMART MANUFACTURING | 15 LEAN PRODUCTION From Lean to Smart Manufacturing: Lean Smart Manufacturing For decades, manufacturers have utilized lean principles and tools to streamline operations and enhance productivity. [...] However, in recent years, with the evolution of Industry 4.0 and the emergence of related digitalization and AI technologies, the manufacturing industry is increasingly adopting smart manufacturing/ Industry 4.0 technologies to facilitate the digital transformation of production systems. [...] It also introduces the six maturity levels to assist the manufacturing industry in evaluating its development in smart manufacturing, followed by an explanation of how to integrate lean production with smart manufacturing technologies to achieve the goal of lean smart manufacturing.
