Capacity Planning

Our state-of-the-art Capacity Planning Model will help you predict future associate availability and compare that against predicted FTE requirements to determine if your organization is staffed correctly to handle expected workloads. Additionally, our approach will help you:

  • Understand how many people you need
  • Understand how over/short you will be so you can proactively plan coverage options
  • Hire in advance of attrition to prevent service-level impact
