SIMULATING SUPPLY AND DEMAND REALIZATION IN WORKFORCE PLAN EVALUATION

摘要

A method of workforce plan evaluation includes receiving (110) a resource data (440) that includes data relating to employee resources, and data relating to a set of opportunities representing demand for employee resources; and receiving a workforce plan (450) associated with the resource data. A realization model configured to simulate effects of supply and demand uncertainty on the resource data is established (130) and executed (140) over a given time period (240) of the planning window (230) for which the workforce plan (450) is generated. The resource data (440) is transformed (150) according to the predictions of the resource model, and metrics configured to assess demand fulfillment and/or resource utilization achieved by the workforce plan under the realization model are computed (160).
