Shared teams or shared resources?

[EfficientEstimate]

Hi all,

I am trying to get my head into some optimizations when using plans. I currently have a project per team and each space has a plan; let's say   PRJ_A & PLAN_A, PRJ_B & PLAN_B and PRJ_C & PLAN_C.

Each project has own TEAM_A, TEAM_B and TEAM_C.

However, TEAM_C is actually made by some members working only TEAM_C and others from TEAM_A and TEAM_B sparing part of their sprint capacity.

Which is the best way to succeed here? Shall I have TEAM_A and TEAM_B as private, but TEAM_C as shared?

If I manage TEAM_A only, shall I create a program to see the allocation of my members across PRJ_A and PRJ_C?   I might not be interested in planning 'C' but given one of my team members also work there, I see useful to see the capacity on the plan.

IMO, if you are determined to “optimize”, then do so around Team cohesion, rather than sharable capacity.  The Team is the atomic unit.
