With our capacity planning, you can schedule projects in such a way that there is no over- or understaffing and the operational utilization is in the green long term.
More effective capacity planning through
Filtering the workload of departments or team
Overview of ongoing projects, their time requirements and resource consumption
Simple project postponement including display of the effect on operational utilisation
Display of staff requirements up to 60 weeks in advance
With our schedules, you can efficiently plan staff, inventory and events. Vanillaplan is multi-user capable, so you can coordinate your company's operations with different people at the same time. With just one click, you can switch from the project view to the resource view and receive relevant information on the projects or on employees and inventory.
More intuitive deployment planning through

Forward planning of all resources: personnel, machines, vehicles, tools, rooms or events
Switch between the daily and multi-week view with just one click
Display of resource consumption over the entire project phase
Planning of fixed teams, groups or columns of employees and inventory
Flexible schedules
With our flexible schedules, you get an end-to-end solution with specific features from planning to production, assembly, installation, and service.
Planning
Allocation of individual employees as well as defined teams in percent or hours
Manufacturing
Aligned allocation of your orders to machines and workstations with dynamic consideration of the workstation allocation
Construction/Assembly
Assignment of individual employees, inventory, defined teams, groups as well as columns full-time or part-time
Service
Short-term allocation of individual persons, inventory as well as defined teams in hours or half days
In the absence schedule, you distinguish between absence reasons by colour and symbol. The absence plan is linked to the schedule and capacity plan and the automatic schedule collision prevents the allocation of a resource to two events at the same time.

Dynamic planning: Automatic adjustment of the order runtime to employee capacity
3-shift operation: Scheduling of machines and employees in up to three shifts
On-time completion: orders that are behind schedule are highlighted in red and optimised with just a few clicks
