Resource Breakdown Structure (RBS)

By integrating its solutions for project and resource management, TrackerSuite.Net provides a highly configurable, logical Resource Breakdown Structure for planning, estimating and managing project work.

A Resource Breakdown Structure (or RBS) is a hierarchal structure of human resources, organized by function. For example, the top level of the RBS could be the business unit that resource belongs to, the second-to-last level would be the manager that resource reports to, with the final level being the resource itself.

The purpose of a Resource Breakdown Structure is to simplify the review of available resources and improve project efficiency, as it is used in conjunction with Work Breakdown Structure (WBS) for the planning and control of work.

TrackerSuite.Net provides an integrated approach to HR and project management which provides a logical RBS in which to work.

• In Personnel Tracker.Net, employee files include that individual's place in the Organizational Breakdown Structure (OBS), which can include Business Unit, Division and Department. This OBS is configurable, and can map to almost any organization. The individual's file also includes their Employee Type, Position, Manager and Supervisor.
• Project Tracker.Net provides tools for resource availability review by month or week. These views can be filtered as needed, and specific resources can be drilled down on.
