Prompts

Which projects compete for the same resources?

Capacity view across a portfolio, grouped by skill and project – where projects fight over the same scarce people.

All people, companies and projects shown are synthetic Rillsoft sample data – from the shipped industry packages or, where stated, from a test project.

The prompt

Which projects compete for the same resources? Show me per skill which projects register demand in the same period.

Changes the project (one undo step)

In your words

  • Mid-sized company: Where do product variant, customer plant, ERP warehouse integration and site conversion hit the same pool?
  • Plant engineering: Which of the twelve plant projects need the pipe fitters at the same time?

What you need

  • An open portfolio (.rpp) – the answer comes from one portfolio view, not from several single queries.
  • Read-only mode is not enough: the AI opens the portfolio – a session operation – and switches the capacity view – one undo step; project data stays untouched.
  • A portfolio is evaluated, not changed.

What you get

In the sample package Marshworks 2027 the capacity view by skill and project shows that in mid-November ERP development is needed from three sides: in the week of 9 November 2026 Customer machine K-450 (machine software) registers 138, ERP warehouse integration 80 and ongoing system maintenance 40 hours – 258 against 120 available with three developers. Assembly fitters are short on 50 of 161 working days (31 %) because Customer machine and Product variant C meet the base load of Series production and daily business (480 hours per week), joined by the site conversion from January. The answer names per skill the projects involved and the period.
Human resource capacity planning by role and project in the Marshworks 2027 portfolio, November and December 2026, in hours: IT – ERP developer with week 46 demand 258 and shortfall −138, below it the customer machine K-450 (138), ERP warehouse integration (80) and series production and daily business (40); assembly fitters in December at 528, 632 and 768 hours; below the ERP developer chart with demand 9 against capacity 3
Three projects want the same ERP development in mid-November: customer machine, warehouse integration and daily business register 258 hours together – 120 are available

Why it is useful

A portfolio bottleneck is a scarce skill that projects fight over. The answer makes visible which projects – and therefore where prioritisation is needed. Without the capacity view across all projects each project manager would see only their own demand; only the portfolio view shows that three projects want the same ERP development in mid-November.

How the answer is produced

The AI opens the portfolio, sets the capacity view to the grouping skill and project and reads the report. The portfolio file itself is never written.

Limits

Structural changes in a portfolio are rejected by the server. Schedule conflicts of the candidate list apply within a single project only. Projects whose file is locked are read-only and reported. The Rillsoft Project product page describes multi-project planning.
