Resource Planning in Project Management
We’re talking about everything required to get a project done.
Time, tools, materials, budget, and yes — people.
It’s about knowing what’s needed, when it’s needed, and what’s realistic.
Who’s available. What lead times look like. Where the bottlenecks are.
Done well, resource planning helps you:
Sequence work with fewer surprises
Align people and tasks more efficiently
Flag issues before they snowball
Keep projects moving without constantly shifting gears
It’s not complicated. But it is critical.
Plan early. Adjust often.
Keep the whole system in view — not just the next fire to put out.
Hope you have a great weekend — until next time!
