How do I use forward-looking capacity planning? Does digitalised deployment planning make sense? To what extent can deployment and capacity planning actually be linked? At the moment everything on our blog revolves around what successful resource planning can look like. But of course this is not the only place where we answer the question of how it all works with Vanillaplan. Because the best way to explain that is live, in a webinar. And we have recently begun offering exactly that through the SIA, the Swiss Society of Engineers and Architects. It has more than sixteen thousand members and, besides qualified specialists, also offers fascinating contributions from the fields of construction, technology and the environment. On the SIA inForm platform, which provides further training for architects and engineers, we too may now present our software in a free webinar.

A brief look back: how did we come to the SIA?

When we were at Swissbau in May this year, we came into contact with representatives of the Swiss Society of Engineers and Architects. We were able to present our software to them - and in the course of our exchange we came up with the idea of offering a webinar about Vanillaplan on the SIA inForm training platform.

What exactly is the SIA?

The Swiss Society of Engineers and Architects is a professional association for the four occupational groups of architecture, structural engineering, technology and the environment. It is made up of various sections and specialist societies and thus offers a broad, qualified and interdisciplinary network. Its work focuses on building culture in Switzerland and on the concerns of the professionals behind it. It takes positions on substantive topics such as material cycles, energy and climate questions, helps shape spatial development in Switzerland, is active in the education policy environment and offers a wide range of training and further education courses. It also develops and publishes numerous standards, regulations, guidelines, recommendations and documentation that are authoritative for the Swiss construction industry.

What can you expect from our webinar «Digitalised resource planning»?

Co-founder Ingrid Stalder will present Vanillaplan to you with all its functions and possible uses. This webinar will be of particular interest to engineering and specialist planning offices: you will learn how capacity planning works in digitalised form and what basic data is needed for it. It goes on to cover the linking of capacity and deployment planning and the allocation of employees several weeks in advance. Finally we look at what helpful information can be added in the various views of the deployment plans and how you can use it most effectively.

When does our webinar take place?

Our webinar «Digitalised resource planning» takes place on 14 December 2022 from 11:00 to 11:30 - free of charge, of course.
