Recommendations on best resources for projects
Finding the right team is a major challenge for Project Managers in any project-based organization. They need to match availability and skills while balancing cost and utilization. This challenge becomes more complex with a mix of employees and contractors. Project Operations will use an AI-powered recommendation engine to address these issues. This engine considers factors like experience levels and learns from past project successes to recommend the best team mix. It uses AI from Microsoft Power Platform and data from CDS to provide resource recommendations, aiming to improve project outcomes and team collaboration.
Each suggested resource is given a recommendation score out of 10, indicating how well they fit the specific team member requirement. This score is based on a combination of the following factors: Experience Fit, Skill Match, Cost Impact, and Availability.
Before you can get suggested resources, you must ensure that the prerequisites have been completed. For information on how to complete the prerequisites, go to Prerequisites to use resource recommendations.
