Engineering – Metrics

General Terms Management, Measurement

Keywords Lean Management, Pull, Just-in-time

The Toyota Production System promotes "pull" scheduling to reduce the production of parts that do not comply to what the customer needs. The use of "pull" within software represents a radical change in the way activities are planned. This article gives two examples of the possible application of "pull" within software engineering and de-scribes a measurement tool to assess the current costs and amount of rework within a software development project. The described approach aims to help practitioners to under-stand whether to use "pull" or "push" in their organizations
