Selected Answer: A
A = correct B - The Kanban board is not a KPI + Kanban is non-timeboxed workflow C - Work item type is not a KPI D - Charts & diagrams are not KPIs, they should measure and show particular KPIs based on relevant parameters

Kanban software doesn't have a Burndown chart because there is no predefined length of time in which a backlog should be finished.

I agree about A. Because all other is wrong. Answers B,C,D all contains something that is not a metric. Kanban board is a tool but not metric. Item type is also not a metric. Etc.

A is the correct answer. Lead time, throughput, and Due Date Performance¶. A brief explanation about Due Date performance: This report shows the percentage of items that were delivered on time and the average percentage delivery rate over time. This is useful for illustrating how predictable the system is. Due date performance with a low percentage provides evidence that there is an abundance of variability in the flow. The team should take corrective action or they will not be able to establish reasonable service agreements.

A. Lead time, throughput, and due date performance B. Work in progress limits, Kanban board, and time boxes - There is no timebox in kanban C. Work item types, sprint cadences, and defect classes- There is no sprint cadence in kanban D. Burndown charts, scatter diagrams, and throughput A& B are closer to the answer

The two Kanban metrics that best measure your team performance are cycle times (how fast work gets done) and throughput (how much work is delivered). https://getnave.com/blog/kanban-metrics/ Lead time - does not provide team performance Cycle time - provides the team performance

The cycle time scatter plot is an adapted version of the well-known chart. It is revered in the Lean management world because it provides a very detailed picture of one of the key metrics in Lean – cycle time https://kanbanize.com/kanban-resources/kanban-analytics/cycle-time-scatter-plot
