Identifying Bottlenecks and Delays:

$1.$ How effective are various LSS tools $($e$.$g$.,$ Value Stream Mapping $($VSM$),$ Process Flow Analysis$)$ in identifying bottlenecks and delays within a production plant?

$2.$What are the key characteristics of bottlenecks and delays in a specific production process $($e$.$g$.,$ machine downtime, material shortages, workforce limitations$)?$

$3.$How can LSS be used to differentiate between value$-$adding and non$-$value$-$adding $($waste$)$ activities that contribute to delays?
