Hello Sir, I have seen more than 10 videos of yours on Scrum concepts they have been explained in very descriptive way and I must really thank you for that. Only one suggestion from my end is to please explain them using real time project scenario like you have done in this capacity planning one. Here you took a chart, considered holidays and have shown the calculation. On similar lines if you can add more examples it would possibly the best series on you tube of Scrum Tutorial

Think usually we keep aside all the hours spend outside like daily ceremonies like standup, backlog refinment and other clarification say 2 hours/day. So we are left with 6 hours /day for each person for the day. So actually full capacity for each person will be 6 * 10 ( for 2week sprint) 60 hours for the sprint.

Hi Niladri, awesome explanation!!. One question though, once you are done with capacity planning in hours. How do you come up with story points that can be taken up in these hours (assuming its a first sprint and we have no prior data available) Regards, Ankit Mittal
@flyingsalmon2 жыл бұрын
This is exactly the real problem and question that no one is bold enough to answer...all Agile proponets seem to dance around this simple question and yet it is a real, practical issue we have to deal with in PO/PM and dev side. There is no standard formula to convert hours to/from fantasy story points, and yet you WILL be faced with that situation often especially in a team with no historical velocity data. Let's see if anyone can answer that ;)

@Niladri Mahapatra - Hi! Do you know the way to calculate team’s capacity in terms of Story points? Like in this video you’ve calculated in terms of hours - I want to know in terms of Story points.
@AgileDigest3 жыл бұрын
Use your velocity as capacity, fill 90%, keep additional few stories for the sprint. Not as commitment, but the team can do if time,and situation permits. The uncomited stories should take part in velocity.
@ernestoramgo4084 жыл бұрын
Hello Niladri Mahapatra, I know that in some organizations the capacity planning is not done by the Scrum Master and Scrum Team, there is a kind of manager role who do it prevuosly. Under your experience, is it a valid way to handle the capacity planning?
@sumitagrawal39794 жыл бұрын
Hi Niladri, Here you have mentioned the Capacity calculations based on Hours but how you relate them to Story Points as we size the Stories in terms of Story Points. So even if we say Final Capacity is 318 hours, how much story points are they?

Story point and effort hours are two different unit, should not be relate or compared

Hi Niladri, do we take buffer for any unplanned leave into account while doing capacity planning? One more scenario, suppose there is a new team member and s/he needs hand holding to complete task which consumes time of other team member also. What capacity should be considered in such scenarios?
@AgileDigest5 жыл бұрын
Hi Mahendra, Don't Take buffer for unplanned leaves. Plan it with the visibility you have, a Sprint is 2 to 3 weeks, you will have have a very good visibility about the vacations and leaves. If anything unplanned lets the team learn how to deal with the situation, During your retrospective make the strategy best work for the team. if there are too many unplanned leaves, you can decrease your focus factor.

Hello Niladri - Do you some ready made templates for the same. One more thing how you are considering the dependency factors here. Let between one developer waiting time if others task is not finished or for tester to wait for the developer to complete his development task.
@AgileDigest4 жыл бұрын
Hi Bappaditya, You will find the free template at this link. agiledigest.com/download/capacity-planning-sample-template/ If one testing task is waiting for a development task, its not dependency. The Team needs to work together and synchronize within the team to work on both development and testing together, if that is not happening, please focus on maturing the team member's mindset to work on agile way, let them become self organizing, let them stop classifying development team and testing team, its just one team.

Is Capacity same as Velocity?
@AgileDigest5 жыл бұрын
No. However many practice take the velocity to plan their capacity followed by a Load to the capacity, here capacity planning depends on story points instead of effort hours.
@backester_singhaman69145 жыл бұрын
no velocity is overall of the sprints you average your sprints points and have the velocity, an estimate of points you say that your team accomplishes gives you an idea of how much your team can do..
