15  Shift and Weekday Performance

15.1 Why this matters

Turnaround varies by shift and weekday. Surfacing the strong/weak periods guides staffing, loading, and maintenance windows.

15.5 Interpretation Guide

  • Hotter tiles in the heatmap show surge periods; align loader staffing and scanner availability to these windows.
  • Compare median_hours and p90_hours across shifts; a higher evening or night median often indicates under-staffed loading or slower service during those hours.
  • If a specific weekday/shift combination is persistently slow, consider targeted maintenance scheduling elsewhere and process checks on that window.
