Develop Resources Management Plan

Abstract

Resources are absolutely essential for the project manager and/or the project team leader to have at their disposal if they hope to be able to successfully complete a project and attain a level of results that are considered satisfactory. However, in order to assure that the project team is able to successfully complete a project and attain a level of results required, they must assess properly what exactly resources are. First of all, resources can consist of any and all groups or individual labor staffing resources. In this instance, resources are specifically the people who can be allocated to the respective project or to the particular work element within the project, and whose time can be allocated accordingly. Resources can, however, also refer to any number of inanimate objects that may be utilized by the project team in the management of the project, such as supplies, services, commodities, and budgets.
