I always thought that Kanban is a tool and SCRUM is a method.
- Scarblac 2y agoWhat's the difference?
- olivierduval 2y agoA tool may be used in different contexts A method is a way to structure so "processed" or industrial activity. It may use some tools or none. When it uses tools, these tools are more specified by their inputs/outputs (so how they contribute to the achievement of the goal) that to how they operate. More specifically: - Kanban can be used outside of the SCRUM methodology. For example, nothing forbid to use Kanban in a Waterfall IT project during the implementation phase to track tasks progress - SCRUM may use Kanban or some other equivalent tools to organise and track the differents tasks However, both are historically associated (even if I guess that Kanban came from Toyota and the automotive industry, using lean and not "agile" or SCRUM)
