The Result: Performing the Analysis Based on the Xcelsius Visualization

Executive: William

William logs in to CA Clarity PPM and goes to the Resource dashboard. William sees the interactive portlet displaying visual information. He sees bars that show the FTE developer role demand by month. The blue horizontal line shows the capacity for that role. The FTE percent increase/decrease is currently set at zero percent.

Illustrates the Demand Cacapity bar chart.

Based on the information displayed in the Capacity and Demand graph, he can see that the role demand per month exceeds the role capacity. Using the gauge, William performs a what-if scenario by increasing the FTE percent to see if resolves the staffing issue. Based on his analysis, William contacts the project manager and recommends hiring five developers, and reassigning five developers from non-strategic projects.
