What is one way Kanbans are used in SAFe?

Kanban is a visual management tool used in SAFe to help Agile teams visualize their workflow and manage the status of work items at various stages of development. One of the primary ways Kanban is utilized within SAFe is to manage Work-In-Progress (WIP) limits. By doing so, teams can effectively control the queue length, ensuring that work items are processed in a timely manner and that the flow of work is optimized for efficiency2. This method aligns with the Lean-Agile principles of SAFe, which emphasize the importance of visualizing work, limiting WIP, and achieving a sustainable pace for the team’s work3.
