LeanKit: Optimize your business processes to deliver more value!

LeanKit

Optimize Your Business Flow to Deliver More Value

See The Big Picture

LeanKit supports the implementation of Lean principles, practices, and work methodologies across all business functions, to help organizations create an environment of continuous improvement and innovation to deliver customer value, faster. By visualizing your work as it flows through your process, LeanKit provides a big-picture understanding of the work that helps teams work together more effectively.

Evolve As You Go

See how work flows through your team’s process using virtual Kanban boards. LeanKit lets you define and evolve your process without restricting the way you work. Use vertical lanes to visualize each step in your flow and horizontal swimlanes to represent parallel processes on the same board. As your process changes, easily modify your board layout to ensure that it accurately reflects the steps your team follows to get work done.

Work in Context

LeanKit provides a go-to place that helps teams stay connected and informed, regardless of whether you’re in the same room or geographically distributed. Reduce the risk of misunderstandings, oversights, and handoff delays with built-in collaboration features that make it easy to ask questions and share status updates. Many teams also display their LeanKit boards on a touchscreen monitor to collaborate on work planning and execution.

Business in Sight

Powerful reporting and analytics help you identify opportunities for continuous improvement. Measure the effectiveness of your process using insightful metrics such as flow, quality, throughput and lead time. Understand who did what and when with audit trail details. Both team level and enterprise roll-up reporting is available, with the option to combine LeanKit data with other company data to support custom reporting needs.

Stay Transparent & Aligned

Coordinate the flow of work within and across connected teams to improve the delivery of customer value. LeanKit gives all team members and project stakeholders a shared understanding of the work, providing the right level of visibility and detail to track progress and identify potential problems --even when a project spans multiple teams and boards.

Anytime, Anywhere

Status updates and new information can happen at any time, making it crucial to stay informed and immediately communicate changes to your team. LeanKit can be easily accessed anytime, anywhere from the browser on your mobile device, letting you check status, make updates and add comments while you’re on the go. Any changes made from your mobile device are instantly visible to the entire team.

An Enterprise-Class Platform for Scaling Lean

Our flexible, secure platform lets you connect LeanKit with other tools and applications, creating a software ecosystem that makes it easier to visualize, manage and execute your work.

Integrate with Other Systems

Create a consolidated view of your work and eliminate duplicate data entry by integrating LeanKit with your existing tools and applications. Fully-automated, bi-directional synchronization keeps information flowing between teams to speed up delivery. Our integration hub lets you easily integrate LeanKit with ALM and business applications, including JIRA, ServiceNow, TFS, CA Agile Central, VersionOne, and more.

Scale LeanKit On Demand

LeanKit's cloud-based architecture provides the highest levels of performance, reliability and availability. Our enterprise-grade platform is built to scale with you as your needs grow. LeanKit runs on Microsoft Azure - a hyper-scale cloud platform that meets the most comprehensive security, privacy and regulatory standards. If your organization prefers a dedicated environment, a private cloud option is also available.

Safeguard Your Organization's Data

When you invest in LeanKit, you can trust that your data is safe. We utilize the latest industry standards to implement the highest levels of physical, network, server, and application security. Best-of-breed data redundancy measures and stringent information security policies ensure the integrity of your data. Our infrastructure and certified data centers have passed security audits applied at top financial service, healthcare, and government institutions around the world.

Open API

LeanKit’s open API lets you create, update and retrieve data from your LeanKit account. This enables you to gather the information you need to satisfy specific reporting requirements, create integrations with other systems, automate tasks and much more. Documentation, open-source clients, and example applications are available for a number of programming languages to enable easy developer access.

Sync Up Teams, Speed Up Delivery

Integrate LeanKit with your existing enterprise applications to keep information flowing between teams and accelerate delivery across the entire value stream.

Optimize your delivery process by creating a single, virtual system that automates work handoffs while letting each team use its tool of choice. Every team member sees the same information at the same time, enabling you to improve collaboration, remove process waste and reduce delivery delays.

• Speed up your cycle time by reducing the number of people handoffs.
• Improve communication between functional teams to overcome silos.
• Reduce the complexity of delivery processes across multiple teams and tools.

LeanKit’s integrations are powered by Tasktop and provide fully-automated, bi-directional synchronization between LeanKit and a broad range of enterprise applications. Our hub approach makes it easy to create, maintain and monitor your integrations in a single place.

“There’s not a single tool out there that can solve every problem — especially given the high level of diversity at Vertafore. Using TFS and LeanKit together enables us to combine the value of both tools, minimizing effort without introducing complexity.”
