Logistics support team: 6 agents for 25,000 tickets/month
Logistics support is tracking-heavy and time-bound, where a delayed answer converts directly into a ticket about the delay.
Verdict: Marginal — probably not
- Payback is 39 months — defensible only if you expect this volume for years.
- Headcount spans 6-11 agents across your industry's handle-time range. Measure your real AHT for two weeks before you budget - the band is usually wider than anyone expects.
