Advanced Team Planning
Streamline and simplify resource allocation processes
Although some companies today are project-oriented, most have a hierarchical business organization that is not. These companies are organized into business units, departments, etc., that are run like separate entities. This means that project managers must communicate and negotiate with team managers in order to assign resources to their projects. Genius Project is an ideal project management software to manage advanced team planning.
Interactive Team Gantt Chart
With its interactive Gantt chart that supports project, Matrix, and team plans, Genius Planner is the graphical planning tool of choice for Project Managers and Team Leaders. Thanks to its powerful configurable workflow engine, Genius Project allows Project Managers, Resource Managers and Team Leaders to all participate in the revision process of resource assignments and together come up with the best schedules for their entire teams.
Team Planning and Resource Scheduling
Genius Project’s team planner allows managers to upload all of their resources’ unavailability as well as planned and requested activities into a single Gantt chart. Intuitive graphical interfaces provide a clear view of activity statuses (requested, booked, in progress…) and resource workload.
Top Down Planning Approach
Project managers are not always responsible for actual resource assignments. Sometimes they only need to submit a request to a team or department manager who in turn assigns the resources. With the combination of two powerful features in Genius Project, generic resources and matrix planning, project managers can assign tasks to generic resources that correspond to a team or a department and team managers can then decide which resources have the skills required and time available to perform the task.
Adapting to Your Resource Allocation Processes
At Genius Inside we are aware that every company has different processes and rules. This is why all processes supported by Genius Project, are fully configurable and require no programming at all. Amazing workflow; amazingly easy.
