The concept of lean manufacturing provides productivity, quality,and waste reduction to organizations and the adoption of its tools promotes the improvement of production processes and waste reduction. Value Stream Mapping(VSM) provides an analysis of the company's processes, highlighting events where actions are necessary to continuously improve the organization's internal processes. This study sought to highlight VSM collaborations in the fields of healthcare and sustainable development. The results of the systematic review highlighted 47 articles covering the VSM tool outside the manufacturing environment, as well as its participation in different contexts in caringfor the well-being of people and in the search for sustainable development.
