Batch Record Completion Rate at 59% right-first-time rate: a worked example

Suppose right-first-time rate falls to 59%. This page works the full calculation at that level so you can see exactly which result moves and by how much. Measure how many batch records your quality team completes per review hour, adjusted for the right-first-time rate to show effective throughput without rework loops.

The inputs for this scenario

  • Batch records completed in period: 48 records (held at the documented default)
  • Total quality review hours: 40 hr (held at the documented default)
  • Right-first-time rate: 59 % (the input this scenario stresses; the baseline uses 82)

Working through the calculation

  • The calculation starts from the formula this tool documents: Raw throughput = batch records completed / total review hours.
  • Effective completion throughput works out to 0.71 units/hr at these inputs, and this is the headline figure for the scenario.
  • Raw throughput works out to 1.2 units/hr at these inputs.
  • Right-first-time rate works out to 59 % at these inputs.
  • Total review hours works out to 40 hr at these inputs.

How this compares with the baseline

  • Against the tool's baseline example, where right-first-time rate sits at 82% and the headline result is 0.98 units/hr, this scenario comes in 28.05% below the baseline at 0.71 units/hr.
  • It computes effective batch-record review throughput by dividing records completed by review hours, then scaling by the right-first-time rate so rework is not counted as progress. When the numbers land here, the stressed input is the lever to work; the walkthrough above shows exactly how much each output recovers as it climbs back toward the baseline.

Results at a glance

  • Effective completion throughput: 0.71 units/hr (headline result)
  • Raw throughput: 1.2 units/hr
  • Right-first-time rate: 59 %
  • Total review hours: 40 hr
