Google Workspace Groups and OU - GP Update Timeframe?

We have a client who we are likely to operate as a single OU for Gsuite and manage the underlying policy exceptions using Groups (for a variety of reasons)

The question I have is, due to the dynamic nature of the business in media, we are likely going to have users move from group to group throughout ebbs and flows of the production cycle. We are trying to ascertain what the approximate timeframe is for changes to be applied and, therefore, exceptions to be applied from when a user is moved from one GSUITE group to another GSUITE group

And if required, is there the ability to manually push the update if immediacy is upon us. Other posts have indicated a 24 hour update cycle others immediate...so clarity from a google would be great

In Windows Domains as an example if a Group Policy update is required, one can force on individual users ona. terminal

Well by google perspective, generally any configuration can take till 24h to replicate.
But, by my admin experience, it takes seconds to minutes to apply.

A good example was this week problem:

Many services that generally takes second to minutes to replicates, were taking hours...
I had many problems because of that, but once it was resolved, the replication time became short again.

Thanks for that - its hard to get definitive, so trying to keep
stakeholders aware of short vs long timeframes is always challenging
