Reporting and Analytics

In this process, metrics and reports are used to generate insights for improving workflows. Kanban reports provide a structured way to visualize and analyze metrics, helping to identify areas for improvement such as bottlenecks, inefficiencies, and opportunities for automation. Analytics involves defining, monitoring, and updating Kanban metrics. By tracking key performance indicators (KPIs), teams gain valuable insights into their workflows, identify areas for improvement, and make data-driven decisions. The analytics process includes:

• Defining Key Metrics
• Collecting Data
• Analyzing Data
• Visualizing Metrics
• Updating the Kanban Workflow
• Communicating Metrics
• Driving Continuous Improvement
