What Happens When Leave Collides With Project Plans?

Managing staff availability is a challenge for any organisation but for project-driven professional services, it can become even more complex.

Balancing resource needs across active projects is only part of the equation. Forward planning is equally important. Is the proposed start date for a new project realistic given upcoming leave schedules? Can critical deadlines still be met if a key team member is away for two weeks?

While many businesses rely on HR software, Outlook calendars, or spreadsheets to track absences, these tools rarely consider project requirements or resource dependencies.

That’s where Coretime’s leave management software makes the difference.

In addition to comprehensive project-based time tracking, expense management, and invoicing tools, Coretime includes an integrated Leave Manager, vacation tracker, and absence management system to help you plan and manage absences with confidence ensuring projects stay on track, properly resourced, and your professional services resources are optimised.
