MASTER´S THESIS: Improve team efficiency by measurements of a development team

A cross-functional and self-organizing development team includes all skills necessary to develop what is needed for the stakeholders. One important part of a team’s development is to continuously improve the way of working by regular retrospectives, but also by visualizing how the team is doing. By finding the current bottlenecks, the team should be able to improve.

The goal of this Master Thesis is to investigate how different companies have done but also to make a first automated example for one team at SICK Linköping and make a first analysis on how the measurements affect the team’s collaboration.

When using Kanban, an important part is to measure the team’s “flow”. In such a planning system, aspects like cycle time and lead time becomes important factors. However, a team needs to understand what the measurements could help with. Preferably these measurements are also automated with Jira via the Atlassian’s REST API.
