Project and capacity planning

Plan projects and capacity.
One current overview.

Bring available hours, project demand, tasks, qualifications and absences together in a realistic workforce plan.

  • Identify shortages, surpluses and peaks early
  • Assign work based on capacity and expertise
  • Compare planned hours with time records and budgets
  • Track project progress and occupancy centrally

Supports fixed, rotating and irregular schedules and can account for working hours, rest periods and qualification requirements.

Problem and solution

Problem

Project demand, availability, absences and qualifications are often managed separately. Bottlenecks appear too late and replanning takes unnecessary manual work.

Solution

Manaru brings capacity, projects, tasks and employees together in one current planning view, with matching, alerts and reporting tailored to your organisation.

  • Plan available hours by employee, department or location
  • Connect projects and tasks with suitable employees
  • Adjust plans when hours, absences or approvals change

Core capabilities for planning and capacity

Connect demand from projects or customers with current workforce capacity and adjust from the same data foundation.

Capacity planning

See available hours by employee, department or location and plan across different schedules.

  • Available hours and deployability
  • Fixed and irregular schedules
  • Planning by team or location

Projects and tasks

Break projects into phases and tasks and distribute the workload across suitable employees.

  • Project phases and timelines
  • Task assignment
  • Workload and deadlines

Demand and availability

Match project or customer demand with available capacity and surface exceptions early.

  • Compare demand with capacity
  • Signal shortages and peaks
  • Reallocate when conditions change

See bottlenecks before they disrupt delivery.

Transparent deployment

Know where available hours and capacity are being used.

Faster coordination

Reduce manual planning and respond faster to change.
