QuestionQ41

Complementary Practices

Within the same Kanban system, Work in Progress (WIP) is not a leading indicator for:

  • A Throughput.
  • B Cycle Time.
  • C Number of Product Backlog items finished in a Sprint.
  • D Story points delivered.
Explanation

WIP is related to throughput and cycle time through flow metrics and Little’s Law. The number of Product Backlog items completed in a Sprint is a measure of throughput over that Sprint. Story points delivered are based on relative estimates and are not a Kanban flow metric that WIP directly leads or predicts.
