Workforce Planning Software Goals
1st iteration - planned release for June 2008
- Develop a proof-of-concept tool that will enable workforce planners to generate projections quickly using the minimum dataset that will yield meaningful results.
- Build the software on top of a simplified version of the WHO HRH Workforce Projection Model (the John Dewdney version).
- Provide help, documentation and guidance inside the software to teach basic workforce planning concepts to users.
- Create a simple, wizard-like user interface to simplify using workforce projection models.
- Outputs should include graphical projections and a strategic workforce plan.
later iterations
- Enable users to input more data, if available, and generate more complex, robust and sophisticated projections by adding in other components of the WHO HRH Workforce Projection Model (Hall/Hornby version).
- Provide guidance inside the software to help users with making credible assumptions where data are lacking.
- Improve and build on the WHO HRH Workforce Projection Model.
