About

WE LAUNCH AND MANAGE KANBAN TEAMS THAT SEAMLESSLY FIT INTO YOUR PROCESSES.

Many organizations want to be more Agile but, for a variety of reasons, aren’t ready to take a deep plunge. Enter, Kanban. Kanban is a strategy for work that starts where you are today. Teams visualize their work, bringing clarity to how things are going and where they are getting stuck. Measuring the flow of valuable work creates insights into how the team and the organization might improve. Kanban is adaptable, flexible, and customized for any environment. With Kanban as a service, Evergreen custom builds teams who are trained in Kanban and can smoothly plug into our customer’s environment.

WHY KANBAN TEAMS?

SEAMLESS INTEGRATION

Because Kanban is simply a technique for visualizing a workflow, it plugs directly into your existing processes.

VISIBILITY AND TRANSPARENCY

With Kanban, everyone can see a physical representation of where tasks are in the workflow and how things are progressing.

NO ONSITE LEAD REQUIRED

A group of developers can use Kanban alone, with or without a product owner, and with or without an experienced coach.

INSTANT PROBLEM DETECTION

Visualization doesn’t just help with transparency—it makes it clear where the team is running into roadblocks and what isn’t working.

ENABLED SELF-IMPROVEMENT

Because problems and roadblocks are much easier to see, they are also easier for the team to fix.

Migrating State Government Documents to an
Electronic System

Client Challenge

Our client, a state government, needed to work with multiple different agencies across the state to migrate paper documents and existing digital documents to a new digital document management system. They required both the team to enable this migration and plan for how to get it done.

Our Solution

After scoping the request, we identified Kanban as a service as the best way to work through the backlog of documents that needed to be uploaded and transferred. We hired a team of records information management experts to help plan and oversee the migration, and we trained them on Kanban before they deployed with our client. Kanban enabled this team to predict completion of work, manage their capacity, and expose issues before they became problems.

FAQs

What to Know About Kanban.

Unlike Scrum, Kanban does not require a Scrum Master. No specific roles are required. Instead, the Kanban team is built completely based on technical skills required for the project.
While there are ways of managing larger Kanban teams, we recommend no more than 10 members on a Kanban team. The smaller team size makes the work on the Kanban board much easier to see and interpret.
With Kanban as a service, our teams seamlessly integrate into your business and are fully managed by Evergreen, meaning the rest of your organization can keep doing what you are already doing. Though, don’t be surprised if you see tactics from the Kanban team that you want to roll out to other teams in your organization.
Yes! We offer stakeholder training to help you get the most from your Kanban team.
