SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

The resource planning skill addresses the need to allocate IT project team members across phases, translating project plans and team lists into a clear, phase-aligned resource plan that informs budgeting and staffing decisions.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Generates a phase-by-phase FTE allocation matrix from project-plan.md and team-list.md.
  • Calculates person-month totals and, where rates are provided, phase costs, consolidating internal and external resources.
  • Produces resource-plan.md as input for generate-budget, enabling iterative budget refinement.

Quick Start

Run the resource-plan skill to generate resource-plan.md for the current project and review the draft.

FAQPage Schema
How do I create a resource allocation plan by project phase?

A phase-by-phase FTE matrix allocates team members across project durations by reading project plans and team lists. It calculates person-month totals and phase costs, consolidating internal and external resources into a structured markdown document.

How do I calculate FTE and person-month costs for an IT project team?

Calculate FTE and person-month costs by applying provided billing rates to the phase-by-phase allocation matrix. It consolidates internal and external resources, documenting assumptions about rates, budgeting constraints, and phase durations.

Can I generate a project budget from a team list and FTE matrix?

Yes, you generate a project budget by using the resource plan markdown as the primary input for budget generation. This enables iterative budget refinement based on calculated phase-level resource costs and team allocations.

What inputs are required for IT project resource planning?

IT project resource planning requires a project plan markdown file and a team list markdown file as inputs. These provide the phase durations and team composition needed to build the FTE allocation matrix and calculate costs.

Does resource planning handle both internal and external team members?

Yes, resource planning handles both internal and external team members by consolidating them within the FTE matrix. It maps all roles across project phases and calculates combined person-month totals and phase-level costs.

When do I need to document budgeting assumptions for a resource plan?

Document budgeting assumptions during Phase 2 planning when generating the resource plan. It records constraints, billing rates, and project assumptions to inform downstream budget generation and staffing decisions.
