A telephone center uses three customer service representative (CSR) during the 8:30 am to 9:00 am time period. The standard service rate is 3 minutes per o;telephone call per CSR. Assuming a target labor utilization rate of 80 percent, how many calls can these three CSRs handle during this half-hour period?
Service rate = 3 minutes/call or 10 calls/30 minutes/CSR
Utilization(U)= Demand Rate/[(Service Rate)(Number of Servers)]
0.80 = DR/[(10 calls/30minutes/CSR)(3 CSRs)
DR = (0.80)(30) = 24 calls/30 minutes
These three CSRs can handle 24 calls during this half hour period.

A telephone call center uses five customer service representatives (CSRs) during the 8:30 a.m. to 9:00 a.m. time period. The standard service rate is 5.0 minutes per telephone call per CSR. Assuming a target labor utilization rate of 70 percent, how many calls can these five CSRs handle during this half-hour period? Round your answer to the nearest whole number.
1. A customer service call center uses customer service representatives (L) and rents computer software technology (K) to serve customer calls. Servicing each customer call requires exactly 1 hour of the representative's time and exactly 30 minutes (or half hour), of running the software application. Let Q represent the number of customers served in a day. The hourly wage and rental rate for L and K are w = $10, r = $40. a) Draw the isoquant that represents this...
A call center is concerned that call durations for a customer service representative are too erratic: high variations is call durations can lead to customer dissatisfaction who have to wait longer for a resolution. The company has collected data from 24 randomly selected phone calls from that specific customer representative and found that s = 4.15 minutes. Answer the following questions. (a) Is there enough evidence to suggest that σ = 4 minutes? Use α = 0.05. (b) Assume that...

Problem 1 REGIONAL AIRLINES Regional Airlines is establishing a new telephone system for handling flight reservations. During the 10:00 A.M. to 11:00 A.M. time period, calls to the reservation agent occur ran- domly at an average of one call every 3.75 minutes. Historical service time data show that a reservation agent spends an average of 3 minutes with each customer. The waiting line model assumptions of Poisson arrivals and exponential service times appear reasonable for the telephone reservation system. Regional...
A customer service center in Gary, Indiana receives, on average, 2.5 telephone calls per minute. If the distribution of calls is Poisson, what is the probability of receiving more than 4 calls during a particular minute? Do not round intermediate calculations. Round your final answer to four decimals. Format for probabilities: 0.0000
At a customer service call center for a large company, the number of calls received per hour is normally distributed with a mean of 120 calls and a standard deviation of 5 calls. What is the probability that during a given hour of the day there will be less than 132 calls, to the nearest thousandth?
