Resource-constrained scheduling is a technique used to modify a project’s start and finish dates based on the availability and limitations of critical resources. This method balances resource demand with available supply to achieve the project objectives without overburdening the team.
Managers can use resource-constrained scheduling during instances like limited workforce availability, budget restriction, and flexible project timelines. By implementing this, they can enhance workforce productivity, minimize burnout, avoid project delays, and control project budget.
