## Who needs capacity planning in an IT department?

Capacity planning concerns every role that decides or assigns time: the CIO and PMO to arbitrate the portfolio, the Resource Manager and Engineering Manager to assign people, finance to link capacity to budget, and the Scrum Master or RTE to plan iterations. Each page describes the challenges, indicators, and workflow suited to its role.
