A practical starting ratio for organisations implementing three-day RTO with 50–60% concurrent attendance: one pod per 6–8 in-office employees, with a model mix weighted toward solo (Model S/M) and call-pair (Model SL) capacity. For a 60-person team at 60% attendance (36 concurrent): 5–6 solo/call pods, 2–3 two-person pods, 1–2 small meeting pods. Deployment is modular — start with this configuration and adjust based on utilisation data at 60–90 days.
