SCHEDULE / Deliver
Capacity Planner
Plan from the days you can actually sell.
What it does
- Capacity is available days minus admin, sales and recovery.
- The planner converts a month into bookable days and flags oversell.
- Two projects at 60 per cent each is not two projects.
How to use it
- Count leave before counting capacity, not after.
- Admin, sales and recovery are real work and belong in the plan.
- Keep ten per cent of bookable days free for the unexpected.
- Plan in days, never in hours; hours invite optimistic arithmetic.
Safety notes
- Oversold capacity is a delivery failure scheduled in advance.
- Do not sell days you have already promised to a retainer.
