Overview
What this challenge is about.
Design a Kanban system for the catering order workflow from order intake to delivery confirmation. You must define columns, WIP limits, classes of service (e.g., same-day vs. scheduled), pull policies, and explicit done criteria for each stage. Build a working Trello (or equivalent) board with at least 10 sample cards reflecting realistic order types, and write a one-page operator guide in plain language. Success means a baker, packer, or driver can read the guide once and correctly move a card without asking questions.
The Brief
What you'll do, and what you'll demonstrate.
How can a non-technical bakery operations team visualize and control catering order flow to reduce late deliveries?
Earning criteria — what you'll demonstrate
- Apply core Kanban principles (visualize work, limit WIP, manage flow) to a non-software context
- Define explicit policies and classes of service for a real workflow
- Translate agile concepts into language usable by non-technical staff
- Differentiate Kanban from Scrum and justify the choice for this scenario
