    Value stream mapping originated from the work of Allen Morgenstern in the 1940s on process analysis and work simplification. It was further developed and used by Toyota until the 1990s when they created their own tool called the Material and Information Flow Analysis Form, which is similar to what is now called a value stream map. Value stream mapping traces its origins back to the techniques developed by Morgenstern and documented in publications in the 1930s-1940s, making him considered the father of process analysis and an early contributor to the concepts behind modern value stream mapping.

    Allen Morgenstern
    Father of Process Analysis and Work Simplification
    According to Isao Kato what we call value stream
    mapping origins can be traced back to Allen
    Morgenstern who is considered the Father of Process
    Analysis and Work Simplification. The first complete
    description I can find of the process is in the 1944
    Production Handbook edited by L.P. Alford and John R.
    Bangs and in notes from 1939 of the American Society
    of Mechanical Engineers. This process was used by
    Toyota (and is still occasionally used) until the 1990s
    when they started to use a tool they developed called
    the Material and Information Flow Analysis Form. It is a
    variation of this form that we now call Value Stream
    Mapping.
