🧩 Planning the work is only half the job. Knowing who can actually do it is the other half.

With OpenProject 17.7, planed for August 5, we're introducing new capabilities for resource and capacity planning that help teams make better planning decisions based on people's availability, skills, and working hours.

What's planned?

Available on all OpenProject plans:

• Departments and organizational structure

• Work-related user attributes

• Working hours, future schedule changes, and availability tracking

Available with the new Resource management module (Enterprise add-on):

• Resource planner with dedicated planning views

• Resource allocations based on people, skills, or roles

• Staffing to match open resource requests with suitable project members

No spreadsheets. No separate planning tools. Just project planning and resource planning working together in one platform.
