Frequently asked questions about resource scheduling
It is planning who works on which phase, for how many hours, and when. The goal is balanced workloads, on-time delivery, and healthy utilization.
Good scheduling prevents overbooking, evens out utilization, and helps projects finish on time and on budget. Firms use it to see capacity before issues show up.
Planning sets the strategy and needed resources. Scheduling turns that plan into a week-by-week timetable for people and phases.
Track each person’s available hours, then compare planned or actual billable hours to that capacity to get a utilization rate. Review by week and by role for accuracy.
Watch capacity, utilization, assigned vs. available hours, planned vs. actual, and overtime. Review weekly by person and role to spot conflicts early.
