This is very similar to my situation. With as much work was needed to be done 
to all the pianos when I first got here, 2 or 3 more techs would have been 
helpful. But then once all the pianos were brought up to acceptable 
standards, they would have been sitting around most of the time. We need to 
think about that in future situations. If a department wants all the pianos 
fixed NOW, then they need to hire the people to get it done. But if they are 
willing to wait a couple of years while one tech muddles through all the 
pianos, one tech can take care of all the piano without too much difficulty. 
This is where the workload formula can be adjusted to suit the circumstance, 
(Although I think my formula might be better suited for that, because you can 
assign rebuilding chores on a yearly basis).
