System and method for calibration of WFM system modeling parameters. A first mode M[D,S] of a modeler computes demand-shrinkage controlled service levels and an error metric e(M[D,S]) between the controlled and actual service levels. A user device iteratively adjusts each core parameter. When the user is satisfied that e(M[D,S]) is sufficiently small, calibration of the core parameters is complete. The same is done for calibrating the modeling factor, and then a final e(M[D,S])is computed. A second mode M[D] computes, using the parameters just calibrated, demand-controlled service levels and an error metric e(M[D]) between the controlled service levels and actual levels. The user iteratively adjusts the shrinkage. When the user is satisfied that e(M[D]) is sufficiently small, calibration of the core parameters is complete.
