How to check Team capacity and availability

Narendra_n3921o

We have 10 people to work in the Team Sprint ( 2 weeks )

We create Stories and Assign story points

In 2 weeks We complete the Sprint and Check Velocity Report

Product owner is asking what is the Team Capacity to take one Project 

 

We have 3 Scrum Teams

This is the ask

 

Can you pls help pull together a view that helps us understand the available capacity to take on Downstream integration work.
Might be helpful to include available capacity per team and then also an aggregated view (that includes data from all teams). 
Pls build it bottom up (each sprint) for the remainder of the year and Q1 FY 23 (Feb-Apr).

Hi @Narendra 

In my experience, Big Picture or Tempo Planner/Timesheet can help to plan capacity for teams or even business units. Especially when users can enter their day-off.

From an iteration point of view, here is something I did previously to help a team - since all activities were in Jira, and all tickets had Assignee, time estimates, remaining time, etc. 

In this picture: 4 days before the end of the iteration, we see that 

• Magnus will probably not be able to complete all of his tasks
• Hacksaw, Gerald, Kutsao and Xin probably have some availability 

So, the team can have discussions based on some figures.

 

Hope that helps.
