About Kanban Flow Metrics

In order to build successful & productive teams, establishing a stable workflow is important. A stable workflow helps your organization to deliver the product faster and with greater customer value.

But how can you measure the success rate of your workflow and improve it?

The answer is simple – with statistically significant data.

And it is therefore essential to track the right metrics in order to make meaningful tweaks to your Kanban workflow and setup.

With Kanban metrics, you will be able to understand how your team is performing and where they need to improve. The key focus area for these metrics are measuring “time to value” or “time to market” thereby generating direct business value.

With Kanban metrics, you don’t need to guess when project work will be done, as they give you hard data on the productivity, efficiency, and reliability of your production process.
