Get the Right Team for Every Project, Automatically
Build your project structure
Build your project from scratch by either using standard profession titles and targeted skill profiles or by creating it with an AI text prompt. For each phase of the project, EmployPlan can generate roles based on a natural language prompt that aligns with your customized professions and skill levels or directly from your specified professions and levels that meets the required skills, billing rate and availability needed for the project.
Find the right skilled resource
EmployPlan effortlessly coordinates available resources using an algorithm that automatically assembles the optimal team with the right skill set, tailored to each individual's unique profile, experiences, and availability. Our multi-skill matching approach ensures resources are allocated based on both economic and skill fit for the project, helping you build the ideal team and avoiding the mismatch that comes from assigning a React developer to an Angular project just because they are both "Senior Front-end Developer" by title.
Change staff on the fly
Need to adjust a project due to illness or because the right person is occupied with an overqualified project? Find a replacement resource that closely matches the required skills and cost model, and simply drag and drop to change the allocation. EmployPlan automatically updates the project plan and, if integrated, the timecard system with the new allocation to ensure that both project and billing systems remain accurate and timely.
Need to change the mix of skills because the customer changed the specification on your project? Easily create new roles with new skills and match new resources to change over the project team simply with our Chessboard view that shows you all projects in a single view.
Proactively Build Essential Skills
Find and close Skill Gaps
When a resource is almost the right fit but needs additional skills, EmployPlan will analyze project requirements and resource profiles to recommend targeted coursework from your chosen online schools. Alternatively, you can assign a mentor to supervise their work during the project, ensuring successful delivery.
With our Educate features on the platform, you can track and close the skill gaps for each team member as part of the project plan. Self-learning team members can log their own learning in the system to track their skill development as well.
Anticipate future bench requirements
Create project plans during the "Planning" stage to identify and address skill gaps early. Our upcoming beta integrations will allow you to connect your CRM system, enabling EmployPlan to monitor pipeline deals and proactively develop project structures, forecast allocations, and training plans before the project closes. (Expected in the October release)
On-Demand Learning and Mentoring
Choose from your company’s preferred training providers or explore new ones within the EmployPlan Learning Center.

Grow your career and capabilities
Learning and developing new skills are key to building a successful tech career. With EmployPlan, delivery resources can see where demand exists for new skills, helping them grow their experiences.
