work as it moves through a workflow
(process).
- It visualizes both, the workflow and
the actual work passing through it using
boards. 3

4 Basic Principles
(how you need to think)
and
6 Core Practices (CP)
(what you need to do)

5. Basic Principles
1. Start with what you do now
2. Agree to pursue evolutionary change

11. CP 5. Implement feedback loops
- An improvement always implies a change, but
not every change is an
improvement.
- The three formats for the periodic exchange of
information to determine the effect of a change:
a) standups (at regular intervals),
b) replenishment meetings, and
c) retrospectives. 11

20. System Thinking Approach to
Introducing Kanban (STATIK)
1. Understand what makes the service “fit for purpose”
2. Understand sources of dissatisfaction regarding current delivery
3. Analyze sources of and nature of demand
4. Analyze current delivery capability
5. Model the service delivery workflow
6. Identify & define classes of service
7. Design the Kanban system
8. Socialize design & negotiate implementation

26. - How often we deliver?
- How many items to go in each delivery?
- How long do deliveries typically take? How variable is
that? How predictable?
- How many items are currently in progress? what is their
age profile?
- How many items are yet to be started? what is their age
profile?
- Are things getting worst or better? Can you quantify
that?
