Asana Resource Allocation Optimizer
Identify overallocated team members and rebalance workload automatically.
Nora analyzes task assignments across your team, spots people with too much work, and recommends rebalancing. Prevent burnout and keep projects on track.
Nora runs a weekly analysis of task assignments in your Asana portfolio. It calculates workload per person by counting active tasks, summing estimated hours, and comparing to capacity. When a team member has more tasks than realistic capacity (e.g., 40+ hours of work in a 2-week sprint), Nora flags them as overallocated and suggests tasks to reassign. The report shows: who's overallocated, by how much, which tasks are candidates for reassignment, and who has capacity. This is especially valuable for agencies juggling multiple clients or product teams with variable sprint loads.
Runs every monday morning using Asana, run by your Project Manager.
