Measuring Batch Size, WIP, and Throughput

The second part of this series on Lean and Agile Metrics discusses the importance of measuring batch size, work in progress (WIP), and throughput to achieve continuous delivery. Batch size measures how much work is pulled into the system during a sprint, while WIP measures how many work items are actively being worked on at any given time. Throughput, on the other hand, measures how many work items are completed in a given time unit. The article emphasizes the importance of finding the optimal amount of WIP for each team to reduce inefficiency and promote collaboration. Finally, the article encourages using Lean and Agile metrics to identify opportunities for improvement and continuous evolution.
