Basics of Lean IT

Introduction

The lean methodology is a business process that helps companies increase their competitiveness by reducing costs and increasing customer satisfaction. This is accomplished through the elimination of waste, through continuous improvement of work systems, and finally, by empowering employees to take responsibility for their work. In software development, it is common for a project to have a large number of stakeholders who often compete for resources and time. However, by implementing lean design techniques that include collaboration and iteration cycles, projects can be completed more quickly and with higher levels of success through the removal of waste altogether.
