What is the importance of Project Resource Planning?

• Why resource planning is an important integral part of a project plan? Why is proper utilization important for SMEs? How can a better project resource plan reduce on going costs for SMEs?

• Answer:

  The short answer is staff costs. Hiring, mobilising, training and firing staff is extremely burdensome. Having the wrong resource; or too little or too much resource is bad news. By planning properly, you can ensure you have the right amount, of the right resource, with the right skills, at the right time. Ultimately, a project delivery is delivered by people. They are integral to your planning because they are integral to delivery. Get this wrong and you risk the quality, time and cost of your project. To put this in perspective, consider having 1000 people sitting on a site doing nothing, but you still needing to pay them. Or you cannot start building, because you have not started recruiting the 1000 people. This happened because you brought the people on too early/too late; and you had to foot the bill.
