[All ITIL4-DPI Questions]

A CIO has made value stream mapping a key part of an IT improvement effort. A value stream map for existing services is being developed.

Which approach would produce the BEST results?

Show Suggested Answer Hide Answer
Suggested Answer: D

According to DPI, value stream mapping is collaborative. Stakeholders must work together to identify inefficiencies, optimize flow, and agree on metrics to measure improvement. Option A removes staff engagement, leading to resistance. Option B limits collaboration to documentation, not co-design. Option C addresses change attitudes, not mapping effectiveness. Collaboration + waste elimination + measurement (Option D) reflects Lean/Agile influence in DPI.
