Resource Allocation and Budgeting for Teams PPT

This PPT slide, part of the 30-slide How to Run a Consulting Project PowerPoint presentation, titled "Exercise: Developing a Work Plan" outlines key assumptions and proposed team structures for 2 distinct project teams, highlighting budgetary constraints and timeframes. It begins with overall assumptions that clarify the billing rates, indicating they include discounts. Notably, it specifies that the Senior Manager and Partner will have limited availability, dedicating only one day and half a day per week, respectively, to this engagement. This limitation emphasizes the need for efficient resource allocation given the fixed budget.

The first section details Teams 1-3, which operate under a budget of $200,000 and a timeline of 2 to 4 weeks. The proposed team structure consists of 2 managers, 2 consultants, and 2 business analysts, each with specified bill rates. This structure suggests a balanced approach, leveraging both managerial oversight and analytical support to drive project success.

Conversely, Teams 4-7 are allocated a smaller budget of $100,000 and a longer timeframe of 3 to 5 weeks. The proposed structure here is leaner, with one manager, one consultant, and one business analyst. This indicates a strategic decision to minimize costs while still aiming for effective project delivery.

Overall, the slide serves as a practical guide for decision-makers to understand the implications of team structure and budget constraints on project execution. It encourages careful consideration of resource allocation and time management to meet project objectives within defined financial limits.
