Resource Management: balance capacity across the organisation

TeamWorks resource management lets managers address the key questions they face every day and much more.


Do we have sufficient resource to execute on our current and planned projects?
Do we have the right skills mix?
Are we making optimum use of our resources?

The resource grid lets you manage cross project resource allocations, pipeline projects are used to forecast resource

demand, time off recording and calendars track individual resource availability, resources pools aligned to

skills means you know your enterprise wide resource capacity.

Using the resource views within TeamWorks managers

can evaluate resource supply vs. demand based on

hours, days and FTE (full time equivalent). By having

visibility into all resource needs you can match skills

with requests and assign appropriate resources.

TeamWorks is flexible allowing managers to substitute

and reassign resources as priorities change.
