Our case studies
We’ve implemented Kanban in some of Australia’s leading organisations, helping them to build fit-for-purpose delivery approaches where product development frameworks were insufficient. We’ve blended Kanban with other frameworks including Scrum and Scaled Agile Framework (SAFe®) and have heavily adopted Kanban metrics in our Performance Data Science practice.
JBWere
JBWere’s Wealth Operations teams had a large backlog of planned work that was growing and regular interruptions due to unplanned work. We implemented Kanban across several teams to visualise the flow of work and built a focus on limiting WIP, finishing rather than starting, and on actively addressing the automation of administrative tasks. Within six months the teams had opened up enough capacity to perform a major re-development project without extra funding.
Campaign Monitor
We provided delivery management services for Campaign Monitor on a major re-platforming piece to migrate their hosted services from Rackspace to AWS. Using Kanban as the management framework we increased flow efficiency from 11% to nearly 60%, throughput by 61.5% and reduced lead time by 37.4%, delivering the project to a fixed schedule and with little fuss.
Banking
Our customer had embarked on Australia’s most significant agile transformation using a delivery framework based on scrum. We relaunched several teams using the Systems Thinking Approach to Implementing Kanban (STATIK) and evolved fit-for-purpose systems that were able to deliver great results.
Elabor8’s agile coach worked within the Customer Experience team to deliver baseline training in Scrum and Kanban practices and co-create a physical Kanban board and other visualisations.The large Kanban board, team canvas, delivery metrics, and representation of workflow triage evolved over time and became a focal point within CHW’s office, sparking curiosity in those passing by, including senior managers.
