Capacity Planning
The process of forecasting team availability and allocating resources to ensure projects are staffed appropriately without overloading team members.
Example
Before taking on a new client, an agency reviews their capacity planning dashboard to confirm their designers have bandwidth. They see one designer is at 90% capacity, so they either delay the project start or bring in a contractor.
