Employees Utilization Plan

Abdulelah H_ Bin Amer

Mainly, i was trying to create a utilization plan for every employee in the department so i decided to use the Kanban board and to add a duration for every issue card.

i was trying to add duration for every issue card but i didn't find any solution for that in order to track the utilization.

is there any smart way to track that knowing that my main target is to create a stack that has employee name in the Y-axis and the working hours in the X-axis -the x-axis contain the working hours as 40 is the 8 working hours per week (8hrs x 5 days) and to track who's utilized and who's over utilized.

A similar feature is on our roadmap for Skills for Jira. Currently SfJ offers you Analytics that helps identify skills demand for your JQL query and compare it with your team's supply, highlighting skill scarcity and bottlenecks. It also quantifies the demand in skill/hours (or skill/SPs) but doesn't quantify the demand/supply comparison.

We plan to also quantify the comparison and find over/under-utilization. It will suggest efficient team compositions based on skills demand and resource pool.

It will show you:

• Whether selected users/groups' skill sets will cover the project
• Whether the capacity is sufficient
• Which skill sets are under-provisioned if any
• Which people are going to be underutilized

Happy to hear your thoughts and suggestions as well.
