PROPOSED PROJECT

Expertise Finder

Help consulting partners choose a team for a project using approved staff profiles, project histories, and availability records. Find people with relevant experience, show which past projects support each match, and prepare a team suggestion for the staffing lead.

Authored staff, project, and capacity records. Suggestions use relevant work and available hours; no person is booked or assessed on protected characteristics. People and project owners confirm assignments.

The project in practice.

A fictional project needs a 12-hour service lead, a 16-hour researcher, and a 12-hour analyst for one week. Mira and Devon have the required hours and relevant project records. Sora has strong analysis experience but only eight hours free, so Ivo is proposed with twelve available hours and adjacent transport-research experience for the staffing lead to assess. The proposed team totals 40 hours; nobody is booked.

WHAT IS USUALLY DONE

A partner searches staff biographies and asks who is free. A strong keyword match may not show what someone actually did on a past project, and an experienced person may have too few hours available for the proposed role.

WHAT SOVRUN CAN DO FOR YOU

Sovrun would build a staffing review that matches project needs with permitted staff profiles, verified project roles, and current availability. It explains each candidate with supporting work rather than an opaque score, checks required hours, and prepares a team suggestion for a staffing lead to confirm.

A strong candidate
can still be short of time.

Sora’s direct library-analysis experience is relevant, but the role needs twelve hours and only eight are available. Ivo has the required time and adjacent experience; the staffing lead must judge whether that experience is suitable.

PROPOSED ALLOCATION40hours / no bookings made
Mira / service lead
12 required / 12 available
Devon / researcher
16 required / 16 available
Ivo / analyst
12 required / 12 available

Keep Ivo’s adjacent experience visible. A capacity match is not proof of skill suitability.

A team proposal
with reasons behind each name.

The first build uses permitted profiles and a current planning window. Staffing leads and the proposed team confirm skills, interest, conflicts, and actual availability.

How we’d make it happen.

  1. Define the roles and planning window

    Record the actual tasks, required experience, hours, and project period. Confirm which staff records can be used.

  2. Connect experience and available time

    Show the past work supporting each match and check capacity for the same period. Keep partial experience and stale records visible.

  3. Confirm the proposed team

    The staffing lead reviews the suggestion with people and project owners before making assignments or reserving time.

Where AI helps

Language models retrieve relevant experience and connect a requested skill to specific approved project records. Code compares required hours with the supplied availability period. Unverified skills and stale availability stay visible. The tool does not infer sensitive characteristics or make employment decisions.

What people approve

Staffing leads verify relevant experience, availability, interest, and conflicts. Staff and project owners confirm the proposed roles. A suggestion does not reserve anyone’s time, change assignments, or rank a person’s overall ability.

What we’d need to start

  • Permitted staff profiles and verified project-role records
  • Current availability for the exact planning period
  • Project roles, required hours, review constraints, and staffing owners

How we’d test it

Test matching terminology with different actual responsibilities, expired availability, and a strong candidate who lacks enough capacity. Verify source permissions and exact hour totals. Review usefulness with staffing leads without using protected characteristics or presenting a model score as a hiring judgment.

Prepared for Professional services. We would agree on the work after reviewing your brief, materials, and requirements.
