How Does Resources Allocation & Resource Levelling (CPE520 Project Managment) Work?

Imagine you're building a super cool treehouse, but you only have a few tools and materials, it's like having to share everything with your brother and sister. Resources allocation is how you decide who gets what tool or material when, so everyone can work together smoothly.

Think of your snacks during lunch break as resources. If you have a big group of friends, but only one bag of chips, resource allocation means figuring out who eats first and who waits, just like deciding who gets the shovel or the nails first when building that treehouse.

Now imagine everyone wants to eat at the same time. That’s like resource levelling, it's when you make sure no one is waiting too long, so you might take turns or even bring more snacks! It helps everything run smoothly and nobody gets left out or frustrated.

So whether you're sharing chips or building a treehouse, good resource allocation and resource levelling help everyone work together and have fun.
