A kanban board is one of the tools which can be used to implement the kanban method for a project. Kanban boards are perceived as a variation on traditional kanban cards. Instead of the signal cards that represent demand or capacity, the board utilizes magnets, plastic chips, colored washers or sticky notes to represent work items.〔Kanban Guide: Demand Scheduling for Lean Manufacturing, Compiled by Nilesh R Arora. Add Value Consulting Inc., India 2001, p. 11.〕 Each of these objects represents an item in a production process as it moves around the board. Its movement corresponds with a manufacturing process.〔J. M. Gross, Kenneth R. McInnis: Kanban Made Simple—Demystifying and Applying Toyota's Legendary Manufacturing Process. Amacom, USA 2003, p. 50. ISBN 0-8144-0763-3〕 At its simplest, the board is usually divided into three sections: "awaiting production", "work in progress" and "completed work". Complex Kanban boards can be created that visualise the flow of work across a value stream map. Employees move cards to the section on the board that coincides with the receptacle it represents.〔Kanban Guide: Demand Scheduling for Lean Manufacturing, Compiled by Nilesh R Arora. Add Value Consulting Inc., India 2001, p. 11〕 ==Application== Kanban can be used to organize many areas of an organisation〔Leybourn, E. (2013). Directing the Agile Organisation: A Lean Approach to Business Management. London: IT Governance Publishing: 160–166.〕 and should be designed accordingly. The simplest Kanban board consists of three columns: "to-do", "in progress" and "done".〔H. Kniberg, M. Skarin: Kanban and Scrum making the most of both. C4Media, Publisher of InfoQ.com, USA 2010, p. 31.〕 Business functions that use Kanban boards include; * Kanban board for software development team :The most popular example of kanban board for agile or lean software development consists of: Backlog, Ready, Coding, Testing, Approval and Done columns.
