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. [1] Each of these objects represents an item in a production process as it moves around the board. Its movement corresponds with a manufacturing process. [2] 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. [3]
