Component 1: the canonical team group
One saved group with every teammate's city and working hours. The group is the substrate every other component reads from — change it once, the system updates everywhere.

Operational scheduling system for remote teams
A scheduling system is operational when it survives without its creator. Saved city groups, UTC-anchored recurring slots and a workspace that restores in seconds are what make the difference.

Component 2: UTC-anchored recurring windows
Two or three windows per team, anchored in UTC, displayed in local time. The windows survive DST and stay legible to every region without re-derivation.
Component 3: business-day deadlines
All commitments expressed in business days, computed against the team's holiday list. Calendar-day deadlines silently shift across borders; business-day deadlines don't.
Component 4: the restored workspace
The workspace is the operational dashboard. Group, windows, deadlines and recent activity restore together — making Monday a 60-second review instead of an hour-long rebuild.

Frequently asked
How small can a remote team be and still need this?⌄
Three people across two time zones already benefit. The cost of ad-hoc scheduling scales worse than linearly with team size and region count.
Does this replace our calendar app?⌄
No. It feeds your calendar app. The system holds the logic; the calendar holds the events the logic produces.
