Q: Could you please elaborate on the definition of Cost of Waiting, as Cost per Service Point is different (and a more straightforward costing exercise).

A: Customer waiting cost is an estimate of the lost customer value as waiting time increases ie unsatisfied customers that do not return due to excessive waiting time, this indicates the lost future profit. An example is provided in the instruction sheet. Cost per Service Point is the staffing cost and any asset/delivery cost per service point ie how much it costs to provide the service point. If the model was simply optimised for minimum service point cost an unacceptable waiting time would be introduced and customers lost. By considering the cost of waiting this can be allowed for.

Q: I was wondering if there is a possibility to have a customized version, or at least be able to set some of the other variables. I am looking to determine how many service points are needed (based on a single queue/multiple service points model) that meet the following KPI baseline - Average Waiting Time: 10 minutes - Zero Occurences where customers wait for more than 30 minutes - 95% of all customers are served in less than 15 minutes I also would like to maximize the utilization of the service points.

A: The other "variables" are all calculations based on the inputs provided so they are not really variables at all. If the model was redesigned the inputs could be swapped for some of the calculations ie input average waiting time etc however this would be a substantial rework and it would probably be best to simply develop a queuing formula structure to suit your specific needs. You could achieve a similar result by adjusting current variables ie manually change the Number of Service points to find the best Average Waiting time required (as service points are integers the actual waiting time possibilities may never closely approach your required value). The zero occurrences and 95% requirements do not fit within standard formulation theory (more thought required). Maximising utilisation can be calculated by simply setting the Cost of Waiting to 0, this will usually result in a decrease in Service Points but an unacceptable Customer Waiting time.

Q: Can my form report the search string that was used to find my site?

A: Yes, if you record the referrer as a cookie then this will be sent with the form data on submission if you set Include User cookies, see https://bizpep.com/form1/ . We use this method ourselves setting a cookie the first time a user comes to one of our sites with the referrer domain or a query value to track affiliates and promotion sources, this is then submitted with any further actions ie form submission/purchase etc. You can set your cookie using javascript or php. If you are unsure how to set a cookie a quick search for php $_SERVER['HTTP_REFERER'] or javascript set cookie will provide lots of resources. Using php would be preferable.
