NEW EXPERIMENT / LABOUR STANDARDS
How long should
good work take?
Run a time-and-motion study. Investigate unusual cycles, rethink the method, and watch the labour estimate change as you play.

What if you could
play with the problem?
Sometimes a slider explains more than a spreadsheet. Try matching a team to a day’s demand and see what changes.
Same team. Different timing.
A very different working day.
The coverage conundrum
INTERACTIVEHow this example works
Nine one-hour periods, 8am–5pm. Coverage is the sum of min(scheduled, needed) divided by total people-hours needed. Timing redistributes the same total capacity; team size scales it. This is not a complete roster: breaks, skills, individual shifts and pay rules are excluded.
| Hour | Needed | Scheduled |

LESS SCROLLING. MORE “AHA.”
Big ideas.
Small time commitment.
A quick visual story can open a bigger conversation. Start with why an average demand number can hide the busiest part of your day.
