Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: Visualization of workflow and identification of bottlenecks by showing work items in each state over time

Explanation

A Cumulative Flow Diagram shows the number of items in each workflow state (To Do, In Progress, Done) over time. It reveals: throughput trends, bottlenecks (when one stage accumulates items while others don't), cycle time patterns, and flow stability. A widening 'In Progress' band indicates work piling up without being completed — a bottleneck requiring attention.
