Question
A small organization of 20 employees is looking to deliver a network design service for modernizing customer networks to support advanced solutions:
- Project scope and weekly progress should be visualized by the

project.
- Should consider flexibility to change scope at the point of time.
Which project methodology meets the requirements and have the least impact on the outcome?

Why each option
Kanban provides a continuous visual workflow board, allows scope changes at any time without fixed sprints, and supports ongoing feedback loops - meeting all three stated requirements with the least disruption.
Scrum uses fixed-length sprints where mid-sprint scope changes are actively discouraged, reducing the flexibility to change scope at any point in time as required.
LEAN is a process improvement philosophy focused on eliminating waste and optimizing flow, not a project management framework designed for visualizing scope, tracking weekly progress, or managing iterative customer feedback.
Kanban uses a visual board that management can observe to track project scope and weekly progress in real time, imposes no fixed sprint boundaries so scope can be adjusted at any point, and inherently incorporates continuous feedback and adaptation - satisfying all three design requirements simultaneously.
Six Sigma is a data-driven quality improvement methodology using the DMAIC process, which is not suited for flexible scope management or continuous stakeholder feedback during project execution.
