As a PM, you may want to measure the resource capacity at any point for making better resourcing decisions for new projects. This view helps the PM to understand the estimated capacity of his resources in the selected period.
This is calculated as 1- Utilization (Est) as a percentage.
Lets look at an example: Peter's estimated utilization is as follows:
| Sept | Oct |
|---|---|
| 17% | - |
So, Capacity of Peter is [1-(17/100)*100)=83%.
When the Utilization (Est) for the resource is 0, then the capacity for that resource is 100% as he is free for that period.
