Agile moves fast.
Capacity keeps it honest.

Regardless of delivery approach, one question decides success: do we have the capacity to deliver on our strategies at the right time? Agile brings a lean, adaptive mindset and a continuous flow of value; resource planning adds strategy, funding, and people. They complement each other.

Switch the sprint demand mode — the shared pools show where the load lands.

Where planning fits the agile flow

In the Envision stage you align stakeholders and objectives. In Speculate, most teams start building timelines and delegating — and skip the crucial step: think about your resources first. Do you have the people, the skills, and — most often missed — the capacity to deliver on time and on budget?

Explore, Adapt, and Close then run on honest ground: alternatives are weighed against real capacity, blockers are absorbed without silent overcommitment, and retrospectives compare what was planned against what the capacity data said was possible.

Teams by percentage, one combined forecast

PDWare allocates people to teams by percentage, then assigns teams to projects. Both numbers flow into each person's allocation forecast alongside any other work — an automatic, combined resource forecast across agile and non-agile work. No separate spreadsheet for the scrum teams, no blind spot in the portfolio.

In brief

Resource planning turbo-charges agile: PDWare allocates people to teams by percentage and teams to projects — one combined forecast across agile and non-agile work.

Common questions

Does agile eliminate the need for resource planning?
No. Agile projects are still performed by people, and unless everyone is dedicated to exactly one team and one project, you need to know who is on which teams and which teams are on which projects — plus what that consumes of the organization's capacity.
How does PDWare plan hybrid organizations?
People are allocated to teams by percentage and teams to projects; individual assignments coexist in the same model. The result is one forecast covering agile, traditional, and everything between.
