Summary:This paper presents an optimization analysis of a queuing system for a particular post office as a tool to increase system reliability. The consideration of system reliability in terms of queuing system failures is very relevant. One way to increase reliability is to analyse the system and its parameters in order to identify its most critical flaws. We used the chi-squared goodness-of-fit test based on the validation of a null hypothesis over an alternative hypothesis. The purpose of the test was to verify the correspondence of the measured data with a theoretical probability distribution. Measurements of relevant data were performed on the specific post office that represented the subject of our research. This approach proved to be a powerful tool in system analysis and optimization. The results of such an analysis can serve as the basis for the modelling of queuing systems.
