Explain considerations you need to effectively conduct the intervention, including when to end the intervention and return to baseline phase.

Relevant learning often means effective learning. Often the best way to learn is to relate lessons to something personal. For example, history students can often relate historical lessons to experiences shared by their ancestors. Learners of new languages often first learn phrases they tend to use most often in their native language.
Similarly, applying behavioral analysis lessons to your own behavior can provide helpful insight. For this assignment, you will select a personal behavior or one you have personally observed. You will then identify an intervention and develop a research design to evaluate that intervention.
To Prepare:
Select a behavior from your own life—or from someone with whom you have a great deal of knowledge about their behavior. This behavior should be one for which an intervention could be developed.
Assignment (2-3 pages):
Develop an ABAB design to test the effectiveness of this hypothetical intervention:
Operationally define the behavior.
Describe how you would conduct a baseline.
Explain considerations you need to effectively conduct the intervention, including when to end the intervention and return to baseline phase. (Note: You do not need to develop an actual intervention.)
Identify any other considerations you need to make to conduct the second A and B phases.
Is an ABAB design the best design to use with this behavior? Why, or why not?

Describe service gaps and barriers and how those gaps and barriers were identified.

Introduction & Needs/Problem Statement – (5-7 pages)
In this APA formatted written work you will describe your program’s target population and the community to be served (include demographic data, population size, number to be served by the program). You will also demonstrate the need for the proposed program – use available data (national, state, and local when available). Describe service gaps and barriers and how those gaps and barriers were identified. If data to quantify the need are not available, describe how you will assess needs. Provide information about existing services in the community that serve the target population and are relevant to the proposed program. Find at least one published article about a program that serves a similar population and describe the program and its success, or failure.
Consider finding articles/information that addresses the following questions in order to help you organize this section:
The nature and extent of the problem (What is the need? Who is experiencing it? That is, describe the target population and community to be served. Look for demographic data, population size, census data and number to be served).
Factors contributing to the problem (What are the underlying causes of the problem or need? Resources that already exist? Barriers/gaps that exist?
The impact of the problem or need (Why is the problem a problem? What are the consequences of not addressing the problem? Why is meeting this need/barrier/gap important?)
Promising approaches for addressing the problem (What approaches have been successful in other areas? Are there existing services in the community that serve the target population and are relevant to your proposed program?)
REFERENCES: Cite all outside resources according to APA format. You must include at least 5 peer-reviewed scholarly resources (not just websites or books, etc.)

What is the service rate in terms of the number of customers per hour?

Benchmark – Data Analysis Case Study
The purpose of this assignment is to apply a waiting line model to a business service operation in order to recommend the most efficient use of time and resources.
(This assignment has been adapted from Case Problem 2 in Chapter 15 of the textbook.)
Use the information in the scenario provided to prepare a managerial report for Office Equipment, Inc. (OEI).
Scenario
Office Equipment, Inc. (OEI) leases automatic mailing machines to business customers in Fort Wayne, Indiana. The company built its success on a reputation of providing timely maintenance and repair service. Each OEI service contract states that a service technician will arrive at a customer’s business site within an average of 3 hours from the time that the customer notifies OEI of an equipment problem.
Currently, OEI has 10 customers with service contracts. One service technician is responsible for handling all service calls. A statistical analysis of historical service records indicates that a customer requests a service call at an average rate of one call per 50 hours of operation. If the service technician is available when a customer calls for service, it takes the technician an average of 1 hour of travel time to reach the customer’s office and an average of 1.5 hours to complete the repair service. However, if the service technician is busy with another customer when a new customer calls for service, the technician completes the current service call and any other waiting service calls before responding to the new service call. In such cases, after the technician is free from all existing service commitments, the technician takes an average of 1 hour of travel time to reach the new customer’s office and an average of 1.5 hours to complete the repair service. The cost of the service technician is $80 per hour. The downtime cost (wait time and service time) for customers is $100 per hour.
OEI is planning to expand its business. Within 1 year, OEI projects that it will have 20 customers, and within 2 years, OEI projects that it will have 30 customers. Although OEI is satisfied that one service technician can handle the 10 existing customers, management is concerned about the ability of one technician to meet the average 3-hour service call guarantee when the OEI customer base expands. In a recent planning meeting, the marketing manager made a proposal to add a second service technician when OEI reaches 20 customers and to add a third service technician when OEI reaches 30 customers. Before making a final decision, management would like an analysis of OEI service capabilities. OEI is particularly interested in meeting the average 3-hour waiting time guarantee at the lowest possible total cost.
Managerial Report
Develop a managerial report (1,000-1,250 words) summarizing your analysis of the OEI service capabilities. Make recommendations regarding the number of technicians to be used when OEI reaches 20 and then 30 customers, and justify your response. Include a discussion of the following issues in your report:
What is the arrival rate for each customer?
What is the service rate in terms of the number of customers per hour? (Remember that the average travel time of 1 hour is counted as service time because the time that the service technician is busy handling a service call includes the travel time in addition to the time required to complete the repair.)
Waiting line models generally assume that the arriving customers are in the same location as the service facility. Consider how OEI is different in this regard, given that a service technician travels an average of 1 hour to reach each customer. How should the travel time and the waiting time predicted by the waiting line model be combined to determine the total customer waiting time? Explain.
OEI is satisfied that one service technician can handle the 10 existing customers. Use a waiting line model to determine the following information: (a) probability that no customers are in the system, (b) average number of customers in the waiting line, (c) average number of customers in the system, (d) average time a customer waits until the service technician arrives, (e) average time a customer waits until the machine is back in operation, (f) probability that a customer will have to wait more than one hour for the service technician to arrive, and (g) the total cost per hour for the service operation.
Do you agree with OEI management that one technician can meet the average 3-hour service call guarantee? Why or why not?
What is your recommendation for the number of service technicians to hire when OEI expands to 20 customers? Use the information that you developed in Question 4 (above) to justify your answer.
What is your recommendation for the number of service technicians to hire when OEI expands to 30 customers? Use the information that you developed in Question 4 (above) to justify your answer.
What are the annual savings of your recommendation in Question 6 (above) compared to the planning committee’s proposal that 30 customers will require three service technicians? (Assume 250 days of operation per year.) How was this determination reached?
Prepare this assignment according to the guidelines found in the APA Style Guide, located in the Student Success Center. An abstract is not required.
