Cycle time

The elapsed time from when work starts on a work item until that work is finished. It is not lead time for changes, which runs from a commit until the change is running in production. It is not the wait from a request arriving until delivery; that longer interval is sometimes also called lead time, and it is not this measure. The length of a sprint is not a cycle time.
