IMPACT OF UNPLANNED LEAVES ON PROJECT COST

摘要

An unplanned leave manager is provided that predicts the impact of unplanned leaves on a project. Historical unplanned leave data corresponding to one or more project team members is provided. The manager determines, for each of the project team members, a mean time between unplanned leaves and a rate of unplanned leaves based on the member's corresponding historical unplanned leave data. The manager predicts a cost impact of future unplanned leaves of the project team members, based on at least one of: the mean time between unplanned leaves; and the rate of unplanned leave. The manager selects one or more of the project team members based, at least in part, on at least one of: the determined mean time between unplanned leaves; the determined rate of unplanned leaves; or the predicted cost impact. The manager then staffs the project with the selected members.
