Scenario context

Business situation

Teams must be assigned across communities over a planning horizon while demand, availability and movement costs compete for limited capacity.

Decision to make

Which daily team allocation best covers weighted demand while respecting availability and operational constraints?

What this scenario tests

Tests whether QDIP finds a feasible allocation with measurable demand coverage and operational trade-offs compared with the baseline.

Data used
  • • Communities and demand by day/service
  • • Teams, capabilities and availability
  • • Current allocation / optional baseline
Constraints
  • • Team availability and eligibility
  • • Planning horizon
  • • Movement/reassignment limits and business priorities
Uncertainty
  • • Imported data is validated before use; synthetic demo inputs are explicitly marked as demo data.

Mobile team allocation plan

QDIP helps decide where to send mobile teams so more priority needs are covered with the resources already available.

5 teams · 5 communities · 320 demand units · 5 days

Responsible Citizens · synthetic

Can the same teams cover more priority demand?

5 teams · 5 communities · 320 demand units · 5 days

QDIP accounts for needs, team skills, current locations, location availability and movement across the full planning horizon.

Unlike a spreadsheet, QDIP evaluates consequences across the full horizon: where a team ends today changes what is feasible tomorrow.
