Methodology

Variance analysis at the interval level reveals what aggregate reporting hides. A day might hit its overall service level target while having 30% of intervals below threshold. This tool decomposes variance into its component drivers: volume variance, AHT variance, shrinkage variance, and schedule adherence variance.

How practitioners use it: import your interval-level actuals, compare against plan, and see which driver contributed most to each interval's deviation. The tool quantifies what WFM analysts have always known intuitively — that aggregate metrics lie.
