Value Stream Mapping for Natural Gas Supply Chain: Literature Review

Aim of this research is to provide extensive overview of research achievements regarding use of value stream mapping in natural gas supply chain analysis and optimization activities, and to provide guidelines for more effective value stream mapping use. Indicative preliminary literature review has been done by analyzing and comparing relevant scientific papers from Web of Science Core Collection and Scopus scientific databases dealing with value stream mapping use in natural gas supply chain activities. Results indicate only 9 research papers that use value stream mapping in natural gas supply chain activities, but all of them point to significant benefits of this method in company and supply chain surroundings. This fact justifies a need for considerable new research contribution to this field. Also, mostly used method in analysed researches of value stream mapping application in natural gas supply chain activities is case study method
