Are your project staffing processes scattered across multiple systems? Are your resource managers drowning in emails, buried in endless threads, and wrestling with spreadsheets to find the ideal match for projects?

Checking all the right boxes and staff projects correctly and on time can feel like a frustrating marathon.

Imagine if you could eliminate this chaos and streamline the entire process. Well… we've simplified it all for you!

Introducing Resource Requests

You can streamline your resource request process and match resources to projects faster than ever! Implement a smooth request and approval workflow for your team, cutting out on any miscommunication and speeding up project staffing.

A standardized resource request process

Manage all your resource requests from a single, centralized place. No matter how complex the request is, handle it all with ease. We’ve identified the common requests, and baked it right into the product:

  • Requesting a new team member 
  • Finding a resource for a role-based placeholder
  • Asking for additional hours/extension for someone
  • Finding a replacement for someone in your project 
  • Shifting allocations in a project 
  • Deleting allocations 

All the requests line up like perfectly arranged books on a shelf, letting you manage and fulfill hundreds of requests easily. 

Accelerate staffing with smart recommendations


Speed up your staffing process with smart recommendations that quickly identify the right resources for your projects. Rocketlane suggests resources based on skills, availability, and project requirements, so you don’t have to spend hours sorting through data.

Ensure the best-suited team members are assigned to each task while avoiding under or over-utilization and ensuring good margins.

And if the match isn't available? No worries—easily modify the requirements and find the next best fit.

Easy, one-click approvals

Once you've found the perfect fit, approving them is a snap. Watch as the right resources get assigned to projects instantly.

Plus— resource requests are directed to the right decision-makers automatically. Whether it’s based on project size, region, or other criteria, ensuring approvals are in the right hands without delay.
