Capacity Planning

When to use

• Use when the task clearly matches this PM activity.
• Use when a structured answer is more useful than a generic brainstorm.
• Use when the user needs explicit trade-offs, implications, or next steps.

Instructions

1. Clarify the goal, user, or decision context.
2. Use the skill-specific lens below to structure the work.
3. Make assumptions explicit instead of hiding them.
4. End with a practical recommendation or next step.

Skill-specific lens

1. Estimate available capacity realistically.
2. Separate committed work from stretch work.
3. Account for interrupts, meetings, and support load.
4. Recommend a feasible plan.

Output

• Available capacity
• Planned work
• Buffer
• Risks
• Recommendation
