Kanban (看板) (signboard or billboard in Japanese) is a scheduling system for lean manufacturing and just-in-time manufacturing (JIT). Taiichi Ohno, an industrial engineer at Toyota, developed kanban to improve manufacturing efficiency. Kanban is one method to achieve JIT.

A kanban board is a physical or digital project management tool designed to help visualize work, limit work-in-progress, and maximize efficiency(or flow). In Japanese, kanban literally translates to "visual signal." For kanban teams, every work item is represented as a separate card on the board.
