Managing skilled resources across projects and services?

Struggling with spreadsheets, and need a quick solution? Welcome to Innate, the resource management software company.

We are a well established UK based software author, with products that help to optimize the utilization of skilled resources across projects and services. Our resource management software is particularly effective where organizations are struggling with spreadsheets, but want to avoid the disruption of over complex systems.

Converting your resource planning spreadsheets into Innate will transform your system; project and resource data becomes consistent, user access controllable, and web based reports will substantially improve communication. Innate web based spreadsheets store data centrally in SQLServer or Oracle, and we synchronize with Microsoft Project, if required.

"Implementing Innate has dramatically improved the accuracy of resource utilization information, giving confidence with future project commitments and hiring programs, for 3,000 engineers."
Steve Major, Petrofac

All the core resource management functions are provided:

  • Checking the skills capacity to take on new work and rebalancing the workload using 'what if...' scenarios
  • Resource planning with Innate's web based spreadsheet, and MS Project if required
  • Locating suitable staff and managing the resource allocation process
  • Cost and rates management, to provide cost and income projections against project budgets
  • Record how time is spent, for project tracking, metrics and staff utilization
  • Well structured management information
  • Managed data exchange with other systems, such as HR, ERP and Finance

We work with clients in Europe, North America and Asia, across several market sectors:

  • Consulting Engineers, including Atkins.
  • Engineering services within Oil & Gas facilities providers, such as Petrofac.
  • Internal departments, such as IT and R&D, within financial services, government, pharmaceuticals, telecoms and other sectors.
  • Professional services organizations, including market research and IT service providers, such as Fujitsu Services.

For those that manage IT projects, we not only help to improve the utilization of the resource pool, but also to control the costs of individual Agile projects. Working alongside Agile tools that track issues, requirements and priorities, Innate helps to control project costs by planning and tracking the resources committed, through each review cycle.

With 100 + active clients, Innate has twenty years’ experience of implementing effective resource management software. Innate is a Microsoft Certified ISV/Software Solutions Partner and a member of the Oracle Partner Programme, making reliable products to industry standards. The software is quick to implement, easy to deploy, has great flexibility and is competitively priced.

Check the skills capacity to take on new work as it arrives and get the best fit when matching staff with tasks.
If you are currently using Microsoft Project and spreadsheets for resource management, migrating to Project Server can be too large a step.
With a high percentage of big ticket project software ending up 'just doing timesheets', jumping from spreadsheets to a big system is high risk, expensive and very disruptive.
Measure the financial aspects of project performance. Compare actual resource spend with the value of work done, and the estimate to complete with the project budget.
