How to Measure Velocity Across Tools and reduce WIP by increasing Throughput

Presented by

CJ Henry

About this talk

Every Scrum practitioner monitors the velocity of their team. By measuring the average work completed by a team in a given sprint, a historical record is created, which can then be used for future sprint planning. At ConnectALL, we can help teams measure velocity across a variety of tools. We can help a team measure velocity by either story points or hours worked. Either way, a Scrum Master can build a historical record of sprints to better predict the actual capacity of their team in the future. Inevitably, every Scrum Master is faced with the question of: "Can your team deliver this feature in 2 weeks?" With accurate velocity charts, spanning the breadth of tools in use across an organization, that question can be answered with more confidence. Little's Law demonstrated that increased Work In Process (WIP) results in higher cycle times.
