    PMP · Question 86 · Task 6: Plan and manage schedule

    A project team is using a Kanban board to track work items. The board shows:<br/>- To Do: 15 items<br/>- In Progress: 8 items<br/>- Testing: 6 items<br/>- Done: 25 items<br/><br/>The team has a Work-in-Progress (WIP) limit of 12 items for all active work (In Progress + Testing). What is the current WIP limit utilization as a percentage? Round to the nearest whole number and enter numbers only (e.g., 85).

    How to approach this question

    Calculate total active work (In Progress + Testing), divide by WIP limit, multiply by 100 for percentage.

    Full Answer

    Current active work = In Progress (8) + Testing (6) = 14 items. WIP utilization = 14/12 × 100 = 117%. The team is exceeding their WIP limit.

    Common mistakes

    Including 'To Do' or 'Done' items in the WIP calculation, or forgetting to convert to percentage.
