Abstract

A project is a temporary organization; therefore, when a project starts, the organizational arrangement of human resources must change. This issue certainly will influence the operation processes and will need procedures such as allocation of personnel to the projects, releasing them from the project and assigning employees to project activities. In addition, expense of utilizing internal and outside worker forces could be different, which may force us to consider financial and duration limitation of the project for the specific time period. To do so and in order to maximize utilization of internal resources, in this study we present a linear integer programming model. Maximizing the project benefit function, this model shows the optimum allocation of experts in the project. In order to simulate this model, after gathering the information from a running project in Iran, the data of the project has been simulated by using CPLEX software with AMPL language, which the working hours of each employee in each time (map of engineers) will be the output, so that the project benefit would be maximum.
