# 2025-12-08: OE/VSM - Renaming Digital Process into Value Stream

## Overview

We are announcing an important update to the terminology used in our application - **Digital Process** is now called **Value Stream**. This change reflects our focus on the end-to-end value that you create for your customers rather than on the individual steps in a process. The term "Value Stream" more accurately represents how work, data and outcomes flow across your organisation to deliver measurable impact. As part of this update, you can see the term "Value Stream" throughout the application, including the navigation and documentation. Thank you for your continued trust as we refine and evolve the product to better support the way you deliver value.
