Analyzing The Business Process Using Value Stream Mapping (VSM) To Minimize Waste Case Study: Auction Process at BidFish

Bidfish Startup is a bidding fish startup that services the process of bidding ocean products such as fish, crabs, squid, sea slug, and shrimp. This startup handles all the bidding processes from Kalimantan, Java, and Bali. This startup will become the connector between the supplier (the one that will sell the ocean products) and the buyer (the one that will buy the product). The process of bidding from the supplier to the buyer is managed by Bidfish. However, in the process of bidding, there is still an issue that is categorized as waste. In this study, the method used is the value stream mapping method to facilitate the waste assistance process using the process activity mapping (PAM) method. Waste has been identified in groups according to the seven categories of waste. The seven wastes were then ranked by the Waste Assessment Model (WAM) method. The method’s end result WAM then chose the three highest wastes. The wastes are waiting, excessive inventory, and Unnecessary moving. Each of the waste produces waste as much as 20.79% for excessive inventory, 18.81% for waiting and unnecessary motion. Those wastes caused the efficiency of the process, the efficiency of the current condition is 7%. An analysis of the root causes of waste was carried out using a fishbone diagram. Based on the root causes, then creates the proposed solution. The first proposed solution is given to the waiting, which is to maximize the process, thereby it will produce more value-added activities. The next improvement is that inventories should be managed using the supply chain method. The unnecessary motion will decrease non-value-added activities. Based on this proposed solution the process efficiency of the expected future condition is 29%, this is the percentage of the efficiency after implement the proposed solution by eliminating the three highest wastes.
