Work in Progress Limits

Work in Progress (WIP) Limits are restrictions set on the number of tasks or projects actively being worked on at any given time. They help prevent overloading team members, reduce multitasking, and ensure focus on completing tasks efficiently. By limiting WIP, teams can identify bottlenecks sooner, improve workflow, and deliver quality work faster. Essentially, WIP Limits promote better management of work flow, leading to increased productivity and smoother operations without overwhelming resources or sacrificing quality.
