I'm working on a VSM at the company I work for, and I can't figure something out. We have multiple suppliers for one product (around 13) and the materials they supply are needed in different steps of the production process. Do I then need to map all of these 13 suppliers to the left side of the map (making it quite a mess with all the product flows), or can I just map them under the production process, where the materials are needed? I dunno what best practice is here... Good advice will (naturally) be awared with a best answer! Thank you in advance!

To keep the map simple, use the 80/20 rule. From your list of 13, pick the top 2-3 suppliers (by either criticality or dollar volume) and only show those on the map. Put them on the left side of the map, where suppliers belong.
Send me an email if you need more advice (click my profile).
