TFS Board Consolidation with Multiple Projects

We are using TFS 2012 in which we are having multiple projects. As far as I know, the board visibility is limited to one project on its current sprint. Is there any possibility/addin to consolidate the TFS board using multiple projects ?

The Delivery Plans extension does what you're looking for. Letting you combine multiple sprints from different teams into a single view.

It's not support to show work items from multiple Team Projects on a single Kanban board in TFS for now.

Just like you mentioned, Kanban boards in TFS are currently associated with an Sprint path (scurm)/Iteration Path(Agile). An iteration path only exists within the context of a Team Project. As such, Kanban boards by their current implementation live only within a Team Project.

As a workaround, you could move multiple projects into the same Team Project and use Teams instead. Then you could use different sprint/iteration paths or area paths to differentiate your work items. Otherwise you need to use some third party tool or sites help you tracking such as Kanban Tool, simply by creating swimlanes on one Kanban board (one swimlane for each project).
