In this video I talk about how to start with flow metrics. The answer to that is to calculate your cycle time. I show you why it is important, why it's the first step and exactly how to do it with examples from Jira and Time in Status by RVS using Excel for the calculations. It's quick and easy to do so check the video out and get started using data to help you improve your process and provide better reporting to both the team and leadership.
UPDATE In this video I say that you cannot natively extract cycle time data from Jira but I have since found a way to do it natively, for free, no apps needed. Check out the video here on how to do it with Jira automation rules and some custom fields • Extract data from Jira...

@RickTonoli 6 месяцев назад

Great video as usual, just wanted to add for Jira users not wanting to purchase a plug in, it is entirely possible to do it instead with Jira's automations and one or two additional custom fields, it's how I'm doing it at the moment.

@TheAgileLeanGardener 6 месяцев назад

Thanks Rick great addition and thank you 🙏👍

Thank you for the time and effort you put into your videos. Question: Have you heard of the platform NAVE? It’s used to track metrics such as lead/cycle time, WIA, Throughput, Monte Carlo etc. I’d love to get your thoughts on the platform.

@TheAgileLeanGardener 6 месяцев назад

Thank you that means a lot to me 🙏👍 No I haven’t heard of it but thank you for letting us know about it, I’ll check it out and report back 🙏👍

@dougslay96 6 месяцев назад

Do you happen to have a link to the NAVE app? I would like to compare it to ActionableAgile and the various Excel templates. Thank you!

@TheAgileLeanGardener 6 месяцев назад

I’m pretty sure it’s this getnave.com

@liftyohands3795 6 месяцев назад

Thank you. Looking forward to hearing your thoughts

Blocked Column is considered by many to be an anti-pattern. How about flagging a work item instead? This way the work item retains the context of what column it got stuck in.

@TheAgileLeanGardener 3 месяца назад

I would say use work item age charts daily and you’ll know if there may be a problem before it happens 👍

@syambangkok 3 месяца назад

Hi, Do you only consider story issue type for calculating cycle time? Or do you consider all other types of issues (bugs & chores) as part of the cycle time calculation?

@TheAgileLeanGardener 3 месяца назад

I would only consider the same type to calculate cycle time. If all you’re doing is bugs then only consider bugs. But if your main work is for example stories but you do a few bugs I would only consider stories and exclude bugs from the calculation. The bugs have presumably come from previous stories so that cycle time has already been accounted for.

@syambangkok 3 месяца назад

@@TheAgileLeanGardener how about chores or tasks ? Do you include them along with stories ?

@TheAgileLeanGardener 3 месяца назад

No, you only include the same ‘types’ of work.

@dougslay96 6 месяцев назад

Quick question. In your previous videos you recommended calculating cycle time on the number of calendar days and not business days. Why change that philosophy in this video?

@TheAgileLeanGardener 6 месяцев назад

Hi Doug, that’s a good question! I haven’t really changed my philosophy but a lot of people have been asking for it as well as some clients so I decided to provide a way. For me it’s a temperature check, it’s meant as a guide, not to be taken to the ‘exact day’. If you do that you can get overly obsessed with it rather than focusing on fixing the real issues. But. Some people want it as exact as it can possibly be.

@dougslay96 6 месяцев назад

I get that. I watched a video by Daniel Vacanti showing why using calendar days is more accurate, especially when using the info for MCS. I am looking at using ActionableAgile for all flow metrics and it still calculates it as calendar days.

@TheAgileLeanGardener 6 месяцев назад

Yep exactly. Also a lot of the people I work with work over weekends anyway.
