I CT = Average Cycle Time = i=1NCTi ,
where CTi is the cycle-time of job i
RT
I INV = Average Inventory = 0 INV(t) T

Little’s Law
INV = λ CT
I relates the means of parameters
I holds even when there is variance
I holds for broad range of complex systems
I holds over a finite time horizon, and in steady-state

Practice Example: Pearle Vision
I Consider a Pearle Vision Retailer
I Suppose customers spend 2 hours on average in the retailer
I The facility has an average throughput rate of 5 customers
per hour

Inventory Turns
I Measures how fast firms sell their inventory.
I Mclhenny Example:
1
Inventory Turns = 52000 cases/yr ÷ 104,000 cases = 2 yr.
I You turn a case once every two years.
Using Little’s Law we also get:

What is the probability that at least one person is infectious in the classroom?
I Probability that a random person is infectious: INV/2.7M = 25,000/2.7M ≈ 1%
I Probability that at least one person is infectious in the classroom:
1 − (1 − 0.01)65 = 0.48

Conservation of Flow
λ = λbalk + λeff
1. Little’s Law at ”Wait” Process: INVw = λeff CTw
λeff = 50/2 = 25 patients/hr
So λbalk = 40 - 25 = 15 patients/hr
2. Little’s Law at “See Doctor” Process: INVD = λeff CTD
CTD = 12/25 = .48 hours or 28.8 minutes
