Resource agent

Video transcript

Resourcing decisions in a PS org are high stakes. Get it wrong, and you're either burning out your people or eroding your margins or both. And the problem right now is that making a good call requires you to hold a lot of things in your head. Who's available? What's coming in the pipeline? Whether you're hitting utilization targets? You have questions and getting answers shouldn't have to mean juggling capacity, time offs, and closure probabilities.

Nitro Resource Management agents bring all of that into one conversation. Whether you're forecasting demand for the next quarter or staffing a project for a deal that just closed, it helps you make the optimal decisions fast.

So let's see this in action. I'm asking what's the resource demand on a new project and for a recommendation on who should go on it. It has access to all your project data, what are your requirements, and also about the available capacity of all your team members. It lays out the demand for each role on the project, who's needed and for how long. And it flags that total demand exceeds the project's budget, worth knowing before committing anyone.

Then it finds you the team. The system knows who's available. Best candidates per role, ranked by real capacity. It's also telling you where capacity is tight, like the implementation manager, where everyone's near full capacity.

Once you've identified the right team, you can ask Nitro to allocate them to the project. With the project team identified, your project is ready to start.

Beyond the tactical things, it can also help you answer some of the strategic questions.

Let's say you'd like to understand what the demand forecast is looking like for various roles in your company based on your pipeline projects. But not every deal comes through, so you'd like this demand to be weighted by the closure probability of each of them. Nitro can help you answer these strategic resourcing questions calculating a demand versus supply for each of your roles based on your business logic.
