Resource management

Maximise the return from your people

CA Clarity PPM enables organisations to gain optimal results from their most valuable asset -- their people.

To improve time-to-result, companies must quickly find the right people and form cross-departmental teams to resolve complex problems. With a limited number of skilled people available, organisations must optimise their processes for staffing teams and include people from different areas to assure that all requirements are met. Maximising resource utilisation through capacity planning reduces organisational costs while delivering successful programs.

Allocate the Right People at the Right Time

Quickly search for and select qualified people based on availability and/or skills across the entire global organization.

Balance Resource Capacity and Project Demand

View portfolio summaries that contain resource demand and project status by organizational breakdown structure (OBS) hierarchies such as geography, departments, project type and resource roles. Conduct a "what-if" type analysis on projects to see how demand requirements change.

Manage Resource Requests and Staffing

Communicate resource requirements to resource managers in an efficient and orderly manner. Give resource managers the tools needed to locate and deploy people with the right skills from both internal and external sources to meet the business need and to communicate with them during the entire process.

Identify and Track Key Skills and Experience

Confront the challenge of realizing the full potential of your skilled resources by tracking, categorizing and organizing skills. Quickly identify the optimum resources available for each work effort.
