Abstract

A queueing model is commonly used to evaluate measures of performance that involves waiting time. Aspiration level model, on the other hand, is used to balance conflicting measures of Performance, by satisfying certain upper limits set by the decision maker. In this study, measures of performance-utilization factor, idle time, expected numbers of customers in queue, expected number of customers in system, expected waiting time in queue and expected waiting time in system were evaluated at different number of vehicles. Waiting time in system and length of idle time of the vehicles were balanced to determine the ideal number of vehicles needed at the Transportation Service Section of the Physical Plant Office. The analysis showed that the transportation service will be more efficient with four vehicles based on the measures of performance levels assigned.
