What is a pull-based approach?
A pull-based approach is a demand-centric approach in which the project tasks are taken into progress when there is an actual need for it.
- Originally, the pull-based approach was derived from the lean manufacturing technique, in which the supply of materials or production is planned only when there is an actual demand from the customer side.
- In Kanban Project Management, the pull-based approach focuses on maintaining the tasks in the backlog feature and pulling them into the current workflow when the team capacity allows them or when there is a need for those tasks.
How does Kanban Promote a Pull-based Approach to Work?
Kanban is one of the project management methodologies under the Agile Framework. It mainly focuses on the continuous delivery of the project rather than delivering the project at the end of the sprint. Also, it follows a visual approach in which tasks are managed and executed using visual cards. All these visual cards are managed using a digital board called the Kanban Board. Thus, it allows the teams to practice the agile principles of project management with a more adaptive and dynamic workflow.
