To define the costs of Resources, proceed to the Costs tab. In the Availability tab, enter the value for each Resources available. The availability of Resources determines how many resources of a given type you have as a whole (not for a particular activity).Ī new window will display the available resources. To define availability and costs of resources, select the Resources option found in the Ribbon. To add a new resource, click on Resources.Įnter the name, description and type of the new resource. To define a Resource click the Resources option found in the ribbon.Ī new window will display the available resources. Resources: Remember that a resource is a person, equipment or space necessary for the execution of a specific task. In the Resources Analysis level you need to define the following parameters: Delays (time an activity waits for a resource).ĭefining the input Data required for this levelīy default the Performers defined in the process documentation are defined as resources.The resource analysis results will allow you to evaluate the following performance measures: The purpose of this analysis is to identify and minimize the impact of these constraints in terms of cycle time and costs. Consequently, this level also allows you to analyze your business operation in terms of costs. Money is another resource directly or indirectly involved in a process. This results in bottlenecks and increase in cycle time, thereby reducing the capacity of the process. The most common issue arising from introducing resources constraints is that tokens need to wait to be processed at a given moment. In real terms there are always resources constraints. However this assumption is not practical at all. In the previous level, Time Analysis, we assumed infinite resource capacity, that is, activities are able to process infinite quantity of tokens at the same time. Remember that a Resource is defined as a person, equipment, or space necessary for the execution of a specific task. This analysis shows the potential effect of resource constrains on process performance.
