Project 2016 delivers on some of the most requested capabilities: Resource Management and Resource Capacity Planning. This release of Microsoft Project 2016 includes significant updates to Project Professional, Project Pro for Office 365 and Project Online.

In addition to resource management, there are a host of improvements and new features to help you be more productive with Project, such as improved timelines, Tell Me integration and full support for Office add-ins. The project manager will always have an up-to-date view of the status of their requests.įurthermore, the new Capacity heat maps and intuitive reports allow resource managers to visualise the capacity of their resources, preventing under- or over- use of individual resources.

Once the resource has been assigned to a particular project for a certain duration of time, project managers can then use Resource Engagements to ‘lock’ the resource. Project managers can now use the Resource Engagements tool to systematically request a resource from the resource manager. Immediately available online as part of Microsoft Office 365, Project 2016 offers significant updates to Project Professional, Project Pro for Office 365 and Project Online and also delivers new features to support customers’ requests for better resource management and resource capacity planning. Microsoft has made Project 2016, its enterprise project and resource management tool, generally available.
