Interactive Exercise:
Defining Metrics for
Resource Capacity Management
 Facilitator:
Wayne Mackey
Principal
Product Development Consulting, Inc.
You’ve got metrics in place for many
aspects of your business, but some key business factors seem to defy
measurement. This work session will take you step-by-step through
setting good metrics around resource capacity management.
Participants will engage in an actual build of a "metrics tree"
starting from an organization level goal and continuing through
project level metrics. At each level, participants will apply their
collective experience and follow a simple set of guidelines to
uncover the critical few metrics and weed out those with less
impact. The output of the work session will be a basic set of goals
and metrics for resource capacity management.
