Dynamic organisations have multiple demand sources for their resources. The ever changing allocations and priorities make it difficult to maintain control. Centralising your demand will resolve this issue.
2. Demand Management Challenge in Dynamic Organizations
Multiple Demand Sources
Hard to Track Utilization & Costs
+ Resource Pool
+ Time Tracking
Difficult to Manage Allocation
3. Common Resource Management Challenges
• Consolidation (Integrated)
– “Manual attempts to understand demand and allocation are time consuming and inaccurate” (lost time)
– “Disconnect between resource management and financials requires manual controlling” (error prone)
– “Current tools and systems cannot be replaced as they serve departmental purposes” (limitations of legacy systems)
• Visibility (Demand)
– “Difficult to see who is booked/planned for which activities – unclear impact of re-allocations” (no transparency)
– “Decentralized planning makes it difficult to analyze costs as well as to plan future budgets (no optimization)
– “Decentralized resource allocation makes it impossible understand availability and manage capacity” (no alignment)
• Control (Management)
– “Lack of central view makes it impossible to ensure maximal resource utilization” (wasted resources)
– “Impacts of allocation changes must be evaluated manually requiring cumbersome alignment” (inaccurate)
– “Siloed project planning and governance blocks management from taking corrective actions” (no control)
