Is there a Kanban process?
Here the answer in two interesting post in the
kanbandev group.
Post from David Anderson:
...
Kanban is NOT a software development life cycle or project management methodology!
...
Use of a kanban system is not possible unless there is an existing development process in use.
...
The Kanban Method is an approach to change management that employs a kanban system on to an existing process context in order to provoke evolutionary/incremental change.
...
There is no kanban process for software development
Post from Ron Jeffries:
...
I really welcome your coming in with these observations, clarifying that
Kanban is not a process, but a way of visualizing and improving the process one has.
...
Often, teams get the impression that they must /replace/ what they are doing with kanban. From what I'm getting from you, this is a "wrong question". "Can we use kanban with our existing process" would be a better question and would be much easier to answer with "yes".
