"With an existing team of over 40 resource managers, we had the expertise but not the advanced resource management solution. We needed to move away from multiple disparate systems in order to effectively scale and drive real strategic impact. With Dayshape, I believe we are better positioned to achieve this."
Christine Thomas
Managing Director of Talent Alignment, Forvis Mazars
"Initially, we believed a team-managed process offered more flexibility. However, it soon became clear, especially with LBMC's vast growth, that this approach didn't optimize our resource allocation. Dayshape's solution gives us the best of both: agility combined with a centralized system for enhanced decision-making."
Ruthie Rooks
Operations Manager, LBMC
"In my experience, visibility gives accountability, it allows you to lay out decision making with the right insights, allowing the right processes to be followed It's not about micromanaging, it's about making resourcing a fairer process with a tool like Dayshape that empowers people."
Allison Hovey
Resource Management Leader, Pinion
"Having that visibility of everyone's schedules, rather than having to search around in a big spreadsheet is a big win."
Kristiann Phelan
RMCP Resource Manager, Wolf & Company
''Retrospective utilization data is not enough. We needed the ability to predict and address pockets where there is known capacity and over utilization. This information is powerful as it helps us protect our people. We have better visibility and control over this with Dayshape. "
Leanne Wilkins
Head of Talent Acquisition and Resourcing, MHA
"We can flag utilization issues much earlier in the planning stages and reduce the risk of individuals being overburdened or clashes occurring."

An engagement manager creates their resource plan by allocating the number of hours of work to be completed and specifying the grade, skills, and location of the resource needed to fulfil the work. A resource manager will then schedule resources onto the tasks based on these requirements. Resource scheduling software can reduce the admin burden on your team by allowing them to easily identify the best person for each task from the available pool of resources.
An intelligent resource management solution provides a number of specialized resource scheduling and project planning features that a standard practice management software cannot. To save valuable time during the scheduling process, AI-powered resource management software can be used to automatically identify and deploy the best people for the job, ensuring that skills, qualifications, availability, location, and all key criteria are accounted for. Automated project controls and alerts can also be used to speed up the process of resolving resource clashes or prevent them from happening in the first place.
Efficient resource scheduling is essential to maintain quality and profitability across projects. The resource scheduling process should ensure that the resources with the skills, experience, and qualifications necessary are scheduled for the right task and at the right stage of the project. Automated resource scheduling software allows resource managers to easily adapt resource plans as the project progresses to keep performance on track. Live project financials and automated alerts also allow resource managers to see the impact of resource changes in real-time, giving them more visibility and control.

Best-match resource scheduling empowers resource managers to assign work fairly based on set criteria and availability, rather than favouritism, preference or recency bias.
