Do you need an easier way to quickly analyze who is overallocated, who is underallocated, who is assigned to what, and which projects need to be staffed or given additional resources?See It in Action
It is easy to see the high-level insights leadership team members need to make informed decisions, as well as more detailed information for PMO and RMO leaders.
To see it in action, check out the demo video below.
Overallocations View
Get a high-level view of how many resources are overallocated, which investments have overallocated resources, and who is overallocated. This view is perfect for leadership team members.
You can adjust filters based on percentage of overallocation, fiscal year month, resource manager, booking manager, resource, resource OBS type, resource level, primary role, or unlisted role.
People View
This view helps you see allocations by individual people. Help ensure employees don’t get burnt out when you visualize who is overallocated based on their role, the number of overallocated days assigned, the number of investments they are assigned to, and the percentage of their overallocations.
You can also gain insights into which overallocated resources are assigned to different projects and which resource OBS groups have the highest percentage of overallocated resources.
You can adjust filters based on percentage of overallocation, fiscal year month, resource manager, booking manager, resource, resource OBS type, resource level, primary role, or unlisted role.
Project Resource Details View
Ensure your projects don’t get bottlenecked with this detailed view. See a month-by-month breakdown of how many resources are assigned to each investment and how many hours are allocated to each investment by month. You can also view how many resources for each investment are overallocated, the percentage of their overallocations, and projected start and end dates.
You can adjust filters based on percentage of overallocation, fiscal year month, resource manager, booking manager, resource, resource OBS type, resource level, primary role, or unlisted role.
No Allocations by Project View
This view helps you plan ahead. Ensure that in the coming months projects are staffed adequately by monitoring which investments are scheduled to start each month and do not have resources assigned yet. You can also view active investments with no one assigned to them.
You can adjust filters based on percentage of overallocation, fiscal year month, resource manager, booking manager, resource, resource OBS type, resource level, primary role, or unlisted role.
No allocations by people view
This view allows you identify which people are under allocated and need work assigned. Visualize unassigned resources by month. You can also sort by primary role, resource manager, and resource level to see the number of assigned people with no allocations or the availability for assigned resources with no allocations.
You can adjust filters based on percentage of overallocation, fiscal year month, resource manager, booking manager, resource, resource OBS type, resource level, primary role, or unlisted role.
