Project management Case study

Resource management

Effectively scheduling your teams across departments.

Control the big picture

Interactive timelines demonstrate gaps in real-time and accentuate resourcing opportunities

Airable's native timeline view paired with its utilisation capability helps build a real-time picture of who is busy, and when people are becoming free.

Synchronise bookings from external calendars and HRIS'

Pull in key dates and events from company calendars and PTO software

We heard the phrase "oh but wait they're away on…" too many times, so we decided to start centralising all of the crucial dates that affect our resource planning into Airtable.

Not only does this help to facilitate resourcing discussions, but it also contributes to your key metrics around billable hours by month in financial forecasts.

Supercharge your resource planning

Automated scheduling

Your team defines the rules, the automation keeps everyone busy

Resourcing at scale can really weigh down key personnel.

Instead of wasting your energy chasing everyone's hours, every week, for the rest of time, we prepared a series of automations that are driven by easy to understand configuration.

By defining the team members for a project and their target hours between dates, our automations will balance their schedule around their holiday and other commitments to ensure that everyone's schedules are at maximum efficiency.
