Idiom/phrase for rolling rotation

English Language & Usage Asked on January 3, 2021

I am looking for idiom or a phrase I can use to describe rotational support process. The process explained as follows:

  • Week 1: team member A and team member B are in charge of supporting group 1. Team member C and team member D are in charge of supporting group 2
  • Week 2: team member D and team member A are in charge of supporting group 1. Team member B and team member C are in charge of supporting group 2
  • Week 3: team member C and team member D are in charge of supporting group 1. Team member A and team member B are in charge of supporting group 2
  • continue

This reminds me of rolling forcasts in finance and rolling-window in Computer. However, I am looking for an idiom/phrase which I can use for day-to-day work (not field specific). Is there any?

Both Staff Rotation and Team Rotation are widely understood variations on this which would fit your needs.
