A typical workflow for you as the demand manager is as follows:
Basics of Demand Management- Work on a demand to assess the feasibility, effort, and cost of the demand and create a business case for approval of the demand.
- Create demand tasks, such as an initial feasibility review, cost estimate, and effort estimate, to delegate activities to specialized resources or groups. For example, a demand manager can create demand tasks for assessing the cost associated with a software upgrade and the resources required.
- Assign demand tasks to a business analyst, resource user, or an appropriate group. The assigned resource or group then creates a cost and resource plan to help the demand manager assess and qualify the demand. For more information, see Demand tasks.
