The proof, already run

We validated this mechanic in a discrete-event simulation of a live single-site pharmaceutical yard. Switching dock scheduling to Strict mode — enforcing slotted arrival windows instead of first-come-first-served — eliminated overtime almost entirely and levelled the peak-vs-average crunch, worth ≈ €32,000/year in modelled savings on that site alone. The same load-levelling effect is what flattens your peak-vs-average gap above.1
