Kanban is a systematical approach used to visualize, control, and measure the progress of tasks in a project. The word Kanban is rooted from the Japanese language and is the combination of the word kan meaning visual and ban meaning card. [1]
Kanban has its origin in the late 1940s when Toyota decided to put its efforts in the development of a production control system with the goal of shortening the time required from the start to the completion of a process. The Kanban system is a sign-based scheduling system that helped Toyota to improve production efficiency and eliminate waste, establishing the JIT (just-in-time) manufacturing system that is a central philosophy of Lean Thinking. In recent years the concept of Kanban got widely adopted especially as a project management tool for software development, but it can be applied to just about any industry, either process, production or task related.[2]
