Scrum is a sad joke. But corporate loves feeling "safe", with estimates in hand, even if they readily blow out. Usually it ends up with "watergile", a total mess.

You can just time kanban tickets vs estimated size (all the forecasting, tracking, etc, should be done by a manager, without wasting the team's time) combined with pulling from the right hand side and vigorous action towards blockers. Optimise for throughput.

During the best version of this, as I experienced, we spent about 5 minutes in the morning as a team, and occasionally visited the board throughout the day (not as a team, sometimes as a pair, to discuss something and add/move tickets). My manager at the time spent some time at the end of each week by himself collecting cards and doing the tracking to make the higher-ups happy.
