Press Release Summary = Datacraft Solutions’ Digital Kanban topic of February
Industry 2.0

Press Release Body = Reducing lead times through detailed flow techniques is the
concept of a kanban system with a “push” manufacturing environment. IT managers are
asked to develop methods for implementation of digital kanban systems, because a
leaner production method is not created by paper (or card) kanban instructions that
result in lost orders, duplicated orders, or supplier confusion. Constant
breakdowns in information flow are a common problem in the manufacturing sector.

While there may be no obvious connection between Digital Kanban and Linux, according
to Justin Diana, CTO of Datacraft Solutions, “Linux makes better economic sense to
develop or run a digital kanban solution versus Windows.” According to Diana,
“There is a paradigm shift in the investment and development community relative to
“open source” technologies. The benefits that come from a global base of developers
have made many of the open source technologies move to the forefront in many
application areas.”
