Student A post: “The Process Map I found was on twitter which is the Preparation of the Biennial Budget for Pierce County 2022-2023

Following Questions:

1. Shouldn’t the Presentation and Review be held together to eliminate the non valve added (waste) of bringing the council back for a retreat?
2. What is the data needed to approve and pass a budget without having waste within each department?
3. Using the PDCA how does the committee determine how much money goes to each department making sure the money isn’t miss used.

Student B post: “Value Stream Mapping Examples for Different Industries – MOSIMTEC (Links to an external site.)

Three questions I could now ask are:

1. How often should/do companies typically update their Current State Maps into their Future State Maps in order to uphold efficiency standards? 
2. What are key differences between different work areas value stream mapping? For example how is a Healthcare value stream map from a Financial Firms value stream map? 
3. What happens if there is an unexpected breakdown within the process? What are companies plans for adapting and tackling those issues?”

Online Discussion Etiquette Guidelines:

• Be sure to make contributions. Even if you feel everything has been said, you need to contribute more than statements such as “I agree” or “I think we’ve really covered it.” Your presence is important to your classmates. If you do not make postings, it will have a negative impact on your community and your grade. If your response postings are statements such as “I agree” or “Great idea” or “I think we really covered it” without supporting statements with concepts from the readings, online video lectures, outside resources, relevant research, or specific real-life application, it will have a negative impact on your discussion grade.
• Please reference the text and lecture videos in your initial post and responses. You are welcome to use outside sources, as well, but only in addition to material from the text and lecture videos.  Outside sources are not welcome as a substitute for the text and lecture videos. The text and videos do not need to be cited more than “per the text” or “per the lecture videos,” but any outside sources you choose to use, do need to be properly cited using APA format.
• Assume positive intent in this classroom from all.
