www.vsmconsortium.org Value Stream Delivery Platforms (VSDPs & CICD) are popular but Value Stream Management Platform (VSMP) adoption lags A 2022 report by Mulesoft and Deloitte revealed that enterprises spend an average $3.6 million a year on labor just to enable custom integrations; on average, though, they only manage to integrate 28% of their tools.

www.vsmconsortium.org ● Limited workflow visibility in individual systems ● Limited ability to attribute effort to outcome ● Difficulty in adopting VSM platforms ○ Data format/quality ○ Data availability Current State

www.vsmconsortium.org Use Cases ● Gather data from multiple tools in a value stream and present end-to-end value stream data ○ Make workflow, bottlenecks and dependencies visible and traceable ○ Provide teams data and visualizations to gain insights into potential improvements ● Leaders can see aggregated views of teams’ WiP and OKRs to measure transformation journeys ● See impact of effort on contributor & customer experience ● Improve orchestration through a central source of data for workflow ● Enable continuous compliance, adaptive governance, policy-as-code ● Automatically generate insights into data via AI ● Produce Declarative rather than Imperative events from VSDPs for consumption by VSMP systems 5
