Non-Value Added Time

To complete the template, follow these steps:

1. Enter total Value Added Time in cell B2.
2. Next, enter total Lead Time (Non-Value Added) in cell B3.
3. Analyze NVA based on the graph and its numerical results.
4. If NVA is greater than 10% of your cycle time, revise the process to eliminate delay:
