Kanban Overview

www.luxoft.com

What is Kanban?Kanban is a method of organizing and managing professional services work.  It uses Lean concepts such as limiting work in progress to improve results.

A Kanban system is means of limiting work-in-progress and signaling when capacity is available to start new work. This is known as a “pull system.”

For intangible goods — invisible work performed by knowledge workers — it is necessary to visualize a kanban system using a kanban board. The board can visualize the work, its workflow, the kanban system, plus various business and delivery risks. Kanban facilitates complex handling of the work and allows real control of the workload.

Foundational Principles in Detail

•You don't have to change your existing processes to start implementing Kanban in your organization. You can start with your current workflow and adjust it over time.

Start with what you do now

•To complete the first principle, the second one tells us that changes should be as small as possible and always in a sense of continuity and evolution of the existing system.

Agree to pursue evolutionary change

•The Kanban method seeks to drive out fear in order to facilitate future change. If your current way of doing work, or at least some elements of it are good enough to be preserved. Well-functioning processes and roles are worth keeping.

Initially, respect current roles, responsibilities & job

titles

•Everyone needs to be fostering a mindset of continual improvement to reach optimal performance as a team. This can’t be a only management level activity.

Encourage acts of leadership at all levels
