Wasting) time analyzing the bitting list(s) each time to remember a system whenever you called to service it, a master key hierarchy chart instantly reminds you of what’s what. 
If I see that, for example, the AB master goes to the 11th floor, I’ll know instantly know where to go for the next available bitting. With that said, I am not aware of any master key software that allows you to create a master key hierarchy chart without already tying it to a fully developed system.
