Abstract: The strive to achieve development and sustenance values have dominated operational practice in recent years. This research is focused on the implementation of value stream mapping in a systemic intervention. The research adopts a case study of a commercial livestock farm. It involves the joint participation of organisation members in a process of identification of challenging issues in the operational process of the case study organisation and the development of value adding solutions, towards the achievement of set objectives. Findings show that the productive engagement of the affected stakeholder guarantees commitment to the effective development and alignment of values in the operational process.
