Resource-capacity calculator

Estimate available delivery capacity by period.

Use this tool to

Understand capacity before making a commitment.

Prepare and use

Use a consistent time period, available capacity, demand, and explicit assumptions about leave, interruptions, and skill constraints.

Privacy

Tool inputs stay in this browser unless you explicitly save them on this device or generate an output. Do not enter information you are not authorised to handle.

Working sequence

  1. Set the purpose, evidence boundary, accountable owner, and review cadence.
  2. Complete the fields from current evidence and make assumptions explicit.
  3. Use the result to support a review conversation, not as an automatic decision.
  4. Record the resulting action, decision, or next review date with the appropriate owner.

Inputs and method

Complete the fields below with evidence suitable for review. The tool structures the work; professional judgement remains necessary.

  • People available
  • Working hours per person
  • Delivery allocation (%)
  • Non-delivery allowance (%)
  • Planning period
  • Role or capacity group

Fictional learning scenario: Use the labelled fictional example in the online tool as a learning starter; replace it with authorised local evidence.

Review and decision prompt

Is demand feasible within available capacity, and what trade-off is required if it is not?

Next action:Use the result to renegotiate scope, sequencing, staffing, or expectations; refresh it when demand changes.

Common failure mode

A capacity figure is unreliable when nominal headcount is treated as productive availability or skills are ignored.

Outputs

Supported outputs are generated from the current validated browser state: csv, xlsx, docx, print. Generated files should be reviewed before sharing or relying on them.

Trust and limits

Capacity is not a delivery commitment.
