  5. 5. Configuration of an electronic Kanban board for planning analysis activities at an industrial laboratory

    University essay from KTH/Industriell produktion

    Author : Elin Andersson; Johanna Linda Nugin; [2020]
    Keywords : Kanban; electronic Kanban; Lean; WIP;

    Abstract : To improve productivity, it is important that the right product is produced in the right quantity when that product is needed. Kanban is a way to signalise the need for material and its main aspect is that it pulls materials through the processes only when needed. Kanban can therefore help reduce Work In Progress (WIP).
