Identifying Resource Requirements

---

Once the project manager and the project team have completed resource planning, the required resources to complete the project will have been identified. The resource identification is specific to the lowest level of the WBS. The identified resources will need to be obtained through staff acquisition or through procurement. We’ll cover staff acquisition in Chapter 9 and procurement in Chapter 12. Figure 7-2 is a recap of all the inputs, tools, and techniques, and outputs of resource planning.
