資源管理 – Resource Management

Unlock new efficiencies with adaptive resource management

Improve Market Responsiveness

Build the right teams, mobilize resources with speed, and adjust resource plans with agility, to achieve time-to-market goals and long-term competitiveness.

Increase Operational Efficiency

Operational efficiency starts with basic resource utilization and availability visibility (i.e. who is working on what) and is vital to maximizing productivity. It is matured with more granular resource allocation controls.

Maximize Business Impact

Excellence in talent management means having the right resources with the right skills available for your highest value projects, working at the optimal utilization rate. This is also the formula for maximizing business value and impact.

Capacity Planning & Analysis
Multiple Resource Assignments

Capacity Acquisition

Use an inventory of resources to select and prioritize investments, programs, projects or small work items.

Aggregate resources, categorize by role
Easily review the upcoming effort for a pool of resources, taking into consideration the ongoing projects along with the proposed projects
Create reports to analyze the gap between requests/allocations and allocations/assignments

Hard and generic assignments

Manage all assignments:

Hard assignments: a resource name has been identified
Soft assignments: the assignments are qualified by organization and/or job classification and/or skills
Generic assignments: same as soft assignments except that their definitions are stored as generic resources to facilitate re-use and review

Fulfill, assign, and track

Easily fulfill or replace resources (i.e. team member leaving the organization) across multiple tasks while the actual effort vs remaining effort is maintained automatically.

Assign and track uniform and non-uniform resources hours/utilization and review resource conflicts across multiple projects.

Maximize utilization rate

Build highly effective project teams from a clearly defined pool of resources available for a project, regardless of where the resources come from, and using the methods of your choice: manual resource additions, dedicated resources, allocated resources, committed resources.

What our clients say about resource management with Sciforma

“The PMO now has a consolidated overview of capacity requirements over 18 months, categorized by team and by role, for ongoing and upcoming projects.”

Arnaud Montels, PMO

“There was not a systematic way to track investments, whether direct project cost or labor resource investments. Using a tool will allow us to track and have a measurement of this to show the true ROI of implementing specific projects.”
