How is average lead time measured in a Kanban system?

Show Suggested Answer Hide Answer
Suggested Answer: C

In a Kanban system, average lead time is measured by observing the horizontal distance between the arrival and departure lines on a cumulative flow diagram (CFD). The CFD visualizes the flow of work items through various stages of the workflow. The horizontal distance between the points where work items enter and leave a particular stage represents the lead time. By calculating this distance over multiple items, teams can determine the average lead time, providing insights into process efficiency and areas for potential improvement.

I vaguely recall something about the cumulative flow diagram, but I can't remember if it's the vertical or horizontal measurement that counts for lead time.

I feel like the average velocity over iterations is more about team performance than lead time, so I don't think A is correct.

I remember practicing a question about measuring lead time, and I think it involved calculating the mean of several items, so maybe option D?

I think average lead time is related to the cumulative flow diagram, but I'm not sure if it's the vertical or horizontal distance.
