Does the
company have multiple projects going all at the same time?
Do you have a Capacity Plan?
Capacity plans require:
- Assignment of resources
from a common pool to all project schedules,
- Software to help
merge the data and display the histograms,
- Commitment by management
to set and change strategic priorities between projects
- Resistance
by management to say “just do it!” (known
as a Nike project)
In the simplified example to the left, in
what month can management initiate a new project that is not
higher in priority than the other four projects? |
