Study Design: Measuring Arrival Patterns in a Delegated Work Queue
Separate request arrival, due-time pressure, and batching effects before staffing decisions.
Headline metric: Three-part bounded observation protocol
Question: when does work enter the queue, and how does that differ from its requested due time?
Method: collect native timestamps, category, channel, and ready-for-work time for a predefined period.
Limitation: the chosen period bounds results; repeat observations before testing intake or coverage changes.
