Demand Management
Manage project phases and streams, high-level estimates, complexity drivers and milestones. Associate suppliers and applications with streams.
Connect projects, planning and recorded time to understand where effort is spent and assess the capacity available for new requests.
Manage project phases and streams, high-level estimates, complexity drivers and milestones. Associate suppliers and applications with streams.
Plan phases using estimates based on complexity, adjust the proposed estimates and update activities in personal calendars.
Record time by project and phase, unplanned core activities, RUN activities and other work such as training.
Analyse recorded time by team and activity area, variances and future allocations. Explore projections and simulations for new demand.
Distinguish Core-Demand and Core-Run effort and analyse activity distribution. Alerts highlight missing hours, high percentages and unplanned activities.
Compare planned days with planning limits, assess planned versus actual effort and evaluate usable capacity by team. Simulations help examine the impact of new demand against a reference date.
The adoption path starts by mapping resources and activities, identifying optimization opportunities and building the capacity model. Supporting processes, training and change support accompany implementation.
Start with your demand, activities and resources to build a shared view of IT capacity.
