Projects & staff – optimizing your resources and project management

Keep it simple and easy to access for everyone! Projects & Staff is an online tool for companies that want to optimize the staffing in different projects. All employees can login to update and see the status for different projects and employees.

How does it work?

Staff

In the staff view, all the company's resources (employees and subcontractors ) are shown. The planning of your staff is done on a weekly basis, for each week the estimated time is entered in percent, not hours (100% is 40 hrs). Each staff will have their own account and will be able to report the amount of percent they work per week and project.

The input in the staff view will also affect the total amount of hours on projects that is shown in the project view.

Projects

In the projects view, all projects are shown. You can easily see all the staff that works in the project and how many percent each staff are planned to spend per week.

Projects has five categories, Internal, External, Innovation, Absence and Management. Each category has its own color coding and will also affect the total/overview row for each staff member.

Getting started

1/ Start by adding some staff to assign project to by clicking on “add new staff” on the bottom left side.
