The study was developed with the identification of improvement points and priority projects for the company, subsequently it gave way to the creation of control charts by calculating the arithmetic mean () and the range (R) of the service attention time with the collection of 100 samples. As a result, it was obtained that the processes are out of control against the changes that are derived from environmental variables.
