High level Teams Planning

[Federico M_]

Hi! we typically do some high level planning yearly, where we define the capacity of each team in hours, estimate some features, and see how those could be accommodated along the year.

We do it in excel, where it is easy to see how the features dd up to show what teams are under/over capacity, and we can more or less move the features to arrive to some year planning.

I saw that Jira Advance Roadmaps has a similar feature, but it needs to define sprints and other concepts that are a little too much for the high level planning we are doing.

Any idea of add-on or tool?

Thank you!

Hi Fede,

You may want to consider BigPicture as one of the add-ons and focus on the resource management module: https://bigpicture.one/jira-resource-capacity-planning/

Other plugins may have something similar, but this is the app we use today.

Hi @Federico M_

If you still looking for a solution I can recommend ActivityTimeline plugin.

With ActivityTimeline it is much easier to do capacity planning with visualization on a timeline. Manager can see instantly the overestimated or underestimated tasks. ActivityTimeline has many timesheet reports.

Let me know if you have any questions.

Best, Nataliya, ActivityTimeline Team
