MyPlanning Tool - resource planning with one click

The MyPlanning tool enables PwC Switzerland to manage its resource planning for 3'000 employees with a single click. The application enables any number of resources to be scheduled at project level over a freely selectable period of time.

PwC Switzerland is the leading audit and advisory firm in Switzerland. With almost 3'000 employees at 14 locations, PwC supports its clients in the areas of auditing,
tax consulting and management consulting.

Initial Situation

PwC Switzerland has decided to reorganize in order to be best positioned for the rapidly changing market. Therefore, previously decentralized resources are to be centrally managed in one vessel – the Assurance Academy. This should lead to a much more flexible, efficient and agile workforce, whose individual strengths and preferences can be taken into account in an overall planning process. The size of the Academy, with thousands of resources, and the high density of challenging projects made manual planning not only very costly, but also inefficient. In addition, there was a need for greater transparency in the financial planning of projects in order to be able to manage them better and more proactively.

Solution

MyPlanning is PwC Switzerland‘s central tool for managing its resources. The application makes it possible to schedule any number of resources at project level over a freely selectable period of time. Directly calculated KPIs show the financial project targets and determine the approval process, which is carried out in the tool. It is possible to schedule employees not only by name, but generically by selecting skills and seniority levels. At the push of a button, an automated planning optimization takes place across all projects, allocating resources, minimizing conflicts and ensuring that the right people can be assigned to the projects.
