Kanban Methodologies

The Kanban Methodology is an official business process used to improve and streamline the flow of work. It is based on the Japanese concept of “Kanban”, which means “visual signal” or “card”. The methodology was developed by Toyota in the 1940s to improve the efficiency of their production process. The Kanban Methodology is a pull system that helps to reduce waste and optimize workflow. It uses visual signals to indicate when a task needs to be done, when it is in progress, and when it is complete. This helps to ensure that work is completed in a timely manner and that tasks are not forgotten. The Kanban Methodology also helps to improve communication between teams and departments, as it allows for better visibility into the progress of a project. Additionally, it can help to reduce the amount of time spent on unnecessary tasks, allowing teams to focus on the tasks that are most important. Ultimately, the Kanban Methodology is an effective way to improve the efficiency of any business process.
