What the chain measures

Cycle time, wait and cost are computed on complete chains only.

The chain, stage by stage

3 stages · the wait column is the gap before that stage began, measured on the chains that reached it

The people system and the service desk both name a person, and their identifiers never meet: not once across the whole week.

Fastest 2.3 d, slowest 6.7 d, median 4.3 d, mean 4.3 d. The mean sits above the median, so quoting the average alone would overstate what a typical chain of this service takes.

What the chain costs and carries

Cost is modeled from recorded touches.

The commitment against this outcome

Hire to productive inside 30 days · owned by Grace Mutiso

Not measurable from this extract.

This commitment sits alongside the function level service levels the estate already publishes, not instead of them.

What this page is, and what it is not

A joiner who cannot log in is a cost with no output, and a joiner paid wrong in the first period is the most expensive kind of correction the group makes.

An outcome is assembled, not recorded.

The ledger behind these chains is one week, 10 to 16 August 2026, which is 168 hours.

Cost to serve is modeled from the touches the ledger recorded, not billed from a timesheet.
