Resource Allocation
Resource allocation is used to assign the
available resources in an economic way.
In project management, resource allocation
is the scheduling of activities and the
resources required by those activities while
taking into consideration both the resource
availability and the project time.
plan
What level of funding it should receive
Which to leave unfunded
The resources are allocated to some items,
not to others
2. Contingency mechanisms
A.There is a priority ranking of items excluded from
the plan, showing which items to fund if more

sacrificed if total funding must be reduced.
Resource leveling
A project management technique used to examine
unbalanced use of resources (usually people or
equipment) over time, and for resolving overallocations or conflicts.
Leveling resources involves redistributing an
imbalance of allocated work. It assists project team
members by keeping them from becoming
overwhelmed, working overtime, or running into
project burnout.

fully use the allocated 60%,

Resource leveling
The Two Key Elements of Resource Leveling:
1. As the main aim of resource leveling is to allocate resource
efficiently, so that the project can be completed in the
given time period. Hence, resource leveling can be broken
down into two main areas; projects that can be completed
by using up all resources which are available and projects
that can be completed with limited resources.
2. Projects which use limited resources can be extended for
over a period of time until the resources required are
available. If then again, the number of projects that an
organization undertakes exceeds the resources available.
Then it's wiser to postpone the project for a later date.
Resource Over-allocation
Over-allocation of a resource is when a
resource has been assigned more work than
can be completed during normal work hours.
Resource allocation often leads to overtime
and overspending on financial resources.
