Program approach
Resource planning compares required roles with actual availability and competing commitments. UGS distinguishes a named role from a staffed role and a staffed role from a person with time to perform it. The distinctions are particularly useful near major milestones.
- 01Role
- 02Availability
- 03Competing demand
- 04Allocation
Delivery example
A specialist supports three delivery streams during the same transition week. The plan sequences work or provides additional cover rather than counting the same person as fully available three times. The arithmetic becomes less encouraging and more executable.
