Non Value-Added –Necessary Waste
Value-Added Activities Non Value-Added – Absolute Waste
An activity that transforms or shapes material or information,
And the customer wants it,
And it's done right the first time.
Activities causing no value to be created, but which cannot be eliminated based on current state of technology or thinking.
Required (regulatory, customer mandate, legal).
Necessary (due to non-robustness of process, currently required; current risk tolerance).
Activities that consume resources but create no value in the eyes of the customer.
Pure waste.
If you can't get rid of the activity, it becomes a "Non-Value Added - Needed Activity."
