Agile and Kanban in Coordination

Abstract

Iterative development and Kanban are not mutually exclusive competing methodologies, in essence they are complementary processes that when used together can facilitate higher performance in large development teams. This paper is a walkthrough of the Network Gaming team's implementation of Iterative Agile alongside Lean Kanban here at WMS Gaming. The intent is to cover the processes created and the improvements achieved with this coordinated Agile / Lean system.
