Resource capacity & utlization management

awais akhter

Hi Jira Family,

could someone help me to manage to calculate the occupied percentage in a specific project? For example, resource A was engaged in projects B & C and he is occupied 50 percent and he is free 50 percent so that we can identify and engage him in other stuff according to his utilization.

Is there any plugin that is free of cost please let me know thank you

Hi @awais akhter

Welcome to the community !!

There are multiple marketplace apps for capacity planning

https://marketplace.atlassian.com/search?hosting=cloud&product=jira&query=capacity

We have also built an app for the same use case.

Capacity Planner

The app allows to store the capacity for individual users and save as templates. which can be mapped to a sprint to track the allocation and remaining time per user. Do try it out.

Hi @awais akhter , and welcome to the comunity!

As you may know, if your team has 10 users or less, many of the apps in the marketplace will have no cost for you. You can check that in the pricing calculator for each app's listing.

If you have more than 10 users, then I'm afraid there will not be many good free options, since app developers need to sustain their business But there should be enough to choose from so that you can find something affordable.

When you make a decision, it would be great to know what you decided to do and why!

Hi @awais akhter

The app is free. Currently the app works for a particular sprint and the tasks allocated to the resource in that sprint.
We are working on a feature to show capacity for projects also. So if you have allocated tasks to the resource for the next 6 months in a project, it will consider that as well. This feature will be released soon.

Thanks

Oh and yes, the app mentioned by @RVS_Support is in fact free -- you can see that because there's no pricing tab on the marketplace.

Hi @awais akhter

You can try Activity Timeline for one month for free!

ActivityTimeline provides a lot of useful features which will help with Jira capacity planning. It’s a great example of a comprehensive Jira capacity planning plugin.You want to assign tasks and track your employees, but you don't want the headache of an inconvenient dashboard? You're in luck. With a scalable dashboard, you can automatically assign and track tasks. The app is fully synchronized with Jira, so Jira workflows are reflected on timelines and vice versa. Assign existing Jira tasks, or create new ones directly from the main dashboard.

If you have any additional questions, please feel free to ask me. We can provide a demo session for you if need it.

Welcome!
