Abstract: ABSTRACT: Operations Research uses theories that study the phenomenon of queuing theory, which represents a problem in organizations due to the lack of balance between waiting times and the cost of service. In this article, the structure of queuing theory is applied with the objective of identifying the optimal level of capacity of a system that minimizes the waiting cost, evaluating the possibilities of having a balance between waiting time and service. This will address the problem of time imbalance in a commercial SME dedicated to the sale of consumer goods. Thus, for the development of this application, several factors were considered, (1) sampling of waiting and service times of customers at checkouts, (2) the capacity of cashiers, (3) situation analysis found through and possible solution alternatives Pom Qm for Windows. In phase one, the customer arrival time and service time were sampled. In phase two, the capacity of the ATMs is measured. Phase three shows the analysis of queuing theory with Pom Qm for Windows and in the last phase a simulation is shown that proposes a solution to meet the objective of this application. The results obtained were determined by three impact factors that lead to the proposal of a layout with better logistics, opening one more ATM with specifications where customers would optimize their waiting time in line from 4.52 minutes to 1.41 minutes, in which the attention span increases significantly.
