Objective: To determine the relationship between the use of Kanban methodology and workflow in Lima companies. Methodology: The research approached a correlational scope, non-experimental design, the survey was used as a technique to collect information on the variables and as an instrument the questionnaire that represents the tool to obtain answers. Data analysis was carried out using Excel and SPSS software, using Spearman's Rho statistical test to verify the hypotheses. Results: The data verify that 60.0% consider that the Kanban method is efficient, while 65.0% consider the workflow as adequate, it was also identified that the use of the Kanban method confirms a direct and significant link to process improvement (p=0.021; r=0.511), personnel performance (p=0.003; r=0.621), also to service improvement (p=0.001; r=0.671) with a significance of less than 0.050. Conclusion: It is demonstrated that the use of the Kanban method sustains a direct and significant link to the workflow (p=0.001; r=0.671), which confirms the hypothesis.
