That Doesn’t Assume
Resource capacity planning designed around how people work—not just how they are scheduled.

Make better resourcing decisions. Keep your resources productive—not overwhelmed.
Plan smarter with real-time availability data. Filter by skill, role, or team tofind who is available. Whether it’s next week or next quarter, resource capacity planning ensures the right people are in the right place without spreadsheet guesswork.
Busy? Booked? Barely assigned? Get the full picture. See who's swamped, who's cruising, and who’s got room to spare. Get a clear visual breakdown of resource assignments, distribute workload efficiently, and avoid bottlenecks by rebalancing effort and reducing idle time.
Forecast workload against real resource capacity and spot gaps before they explode. Whether it’s shortfalls or surpluses, our capacity planning software lets you balance in advance—so you’re not firefighting later. Time, budget, and bandwidth? All saved in the forecast.
Complex resource scheduling doesn’t need complex decoding. Color-coded heatmaps turn schedules into clear visual cues. With workforce capacity planning, you can instantly spot overbooked, underutilized, or available resources across teams and timeframes—making decisions more visual, faster, and smarter.
Too much work, too few hands? The system catches it before your team feels it. Our capacity planning software enables you to identify when resource allocations exceed availability and allows you to adjust schedules before overbooking results in missed deadlines. Keep timelines on track, no matter how often priorities shift.
Not everyone works 9 to 5. Define planned leave, reduced hours, or non-working days at the individual, team, or location level. Handle real-world workforce capacity planning—part-time, PTO, holidays, reduced hours—with precision. Plan with what’s actually available.
Compare capacity vs. demand to know what you have and what you need for your hiring process. Our capacity planning reports don’t whisper—they spell it out, in bold.
Here’s how our capacity planning tool turns data into action:
