If you're having problems convincing your management to buy Primavera you can opt for MS Project. Based on the situation you described, using either Primavera or MS Project can solve your difficulty with resource allocation. Don't use any spreadsheet software, it would just eat up you time and it will not be responsive to your needs as far as your problem is concerned.
well, yes, those sound like great tools, but actually convincing management to buy will be harder. I was thinking more along the lines of using spread sheets or something similar. I am really interested in the steps, the procedure, one follows to do it. I assume an article about it would have some samples. If I cannot find any suggestions, I will just do this the way I see it, which may not be as well thought out.
