It's official! There are kanban implementations on at least 4 continents now. Alisson Vale has written up [in portugese] his experience implementing kanban at Phidelis in Brazil. This seems like a very complete implementation. Alisson has a physical board, some classes of service in different colors, a closeup explaining the detail on the cards, and an electronic dashboard version on a big flat panel display. What is clear to me from this case study is that despite the lack of a book about kanban, Corey and I have published enough material that others can replicate it on the other side of the planet without direct contact with us and get similar results. More and more I'm looking forward to my trip to Brazil in October. :-) Technorati tag: Agile+Management, Lean, Kanban, Alisson+Vale, Software+Engineering, Project+Management
