Estimate person-days per role per phase
Translates each role type's workstream scope into a person-day estimate broken out by project phase, applying delivery judgement about effort, ramp, and dependencies.
In / outRole catalogue + workstream scope + project phase definitions → per-role, per-phase person-day estimates
You might say…
“The effort estimate is where the commercial commitments become real — it needs a judgement call, not a formula.”
What it does
Translates each role type's workstream scope into a person-day estimate broken out by project phase, applying delivery judgement about effort, ramp, and dependencies. Used after the role catalogue is set, as the input to headcount and budget. A reasoning call, not a fixed calculation.
Trigger: Use after the role catalogue is set and before any model-building, as the judgement input that feeds the resourcing computation.
