How to use this tool

  1. Enter the measured quantities and your own planning assumptions.
  2. Review all calculated outputs and the stated limitations.

Try this example

{
  "arrivals": 300,
  "service": 45,
  "window": 30,
  "utilization": 80
}

Accuracy and scope

Average-capacity approximation. Arrival bursts, queue variability and exception handling can require extra desks.
