Staffing decisions are made in a spreadsheet nobody trusts
Most firms staff projects from a sheet that is a week out of date, a chat thread, and whoever happens to remember who is free. Operating keeps allocations, availability and project budgets in one place, so the staffing call you make today still holds next month.
Availability at a glance
See who is free, when, and for how long, across teams, offices and contractors.
Skills, seniority and rates
Match people to work by role, skill level and rate card instead of gut feel.
Plan versus reality
Compare allocations against logged hours to catch drift before it reaches the margin.
Staff from a live picture of capacity
Allocations, absences and confirmed work sit in one plan, so the answer to "who can take this?" is the same for everyone who asks.
Visibility to upcoming projects: smooth handoff from sales to delivery
Availability that accounts for absences, part-time contracts and notice periods
Tentative and confirmed allocations side by side
Contractors and subcontractors in the same plan as employees
Filter by skill, seniority, office and language

Budgets in fees, hours and cost on every project
See what a swap does to project margin before you confirm it
