Resource Management
ProjectObjects solution enables a powerful control
of resource allocation across multiple projects. Company resources
are profiled according to many dimensions (e.g. location, department,
teams,) in order to support advanced searching and allocation capabilities.
The use of “generic” versus “named” resources
permits high level planning with the use of resource “placeholders”
to be replaced with named employees when the tasks goes live.
Company resources can be organized in “Teams” with pre-defined
assignment criteria (% of assignment, assignment lag). A team can
be then assigned to a new project during its creation in order to
get an automatic resource assignment.
All resources can be associated to one or more “Skill”.
For each Skill association is possible to specify the level of competence.
This helps locate the employees that best fits with specific resources
skill requirements and identify possible alternatives when resource
replacement is required.
Resources workload can be analysed at Company level through a specific
module which enable multiple views by Resource, by Project or by RBS
– Resource Breakdown Structure.
A set of analytical reports helps you analyse internal and external
resource spending across various projects, by execution and originating
department.
