🔥🔥🔥 Friday hot take: there’s nothing wrong with 100% utilization… …if the 100% accounts for tasks *outside of project work.* At Float, we encourage 100% utilization with the understanding that this percentage must account for non-billable tasks. Say you are a professional services team with a 40-hour work week → your designers could be 100% allocated in Float, with the 100% broken down into: • 34 hours of billable utilization spent on client deliverables And then: • 2.5 hours of internal meetings, synced from their Google calendar • This week’s 1 hour-long internal training session • 2.5 hours for all other admin and ad-hoc tasks—because we all know they happen every. single. week, and pretending they don’t won’t make them go away 😉

As a resource management spreadsheet, there’s something I need to confess: I struggle to connect in this industry 😥 It’s not that I don’t *want* to. But the other tools in the stack are all best buds, always swapping data and staying in sync, and we have so little in common! Some days I wish I could be replaced with a proper resource management tool, like Float.com. Can you imagine?!?! Instead of trying (and failing) to integrate with project management software, calendars, and messaging apps, I could finally be left alone to work on my math problems 🤩
