Note to the Author

The control gate criteria for each of the seven phases of the Department of Housing and UrbanDevelopments (HUD) Project Planning Management (PPM) Life Cycle require the completion of various

artifacts. Each IT project, working in conjunction with the Office of the Chief Information Officer (OCIO),

will capture decisions around PPM tailoring in the Project Process Agreement(PPA), which documents

the reasons for using, combining or skipping specific artifacts applicable to the project.

This document is a template for a Capacity Planthat is to be completed during the Definition Phase, the

second phase of the PPM Life Cycle.

The template includes instructions to the author, boilerplate text, and fields that should be replaced

with the values specific to the project:

Blue italicized text enclosed in angle brackets () provides instructions to the documentauthor or indicates a field that should be replaced with information specific to a particularproject.

Text and tables in blackare provided as boilerplate examples of wording and formats that maybe used or modified as appropriate to a specific project. These are offered only as suggestions to

assist in developing project documents; they are not mandatory formats.

1. PurposeThe Capacity Planis an important part of infrastructure and deployment planning. A Capacity Plan

supports the goal of optimum and cost effective provisioning of organizational resources and services by

matching them to business demands. It helps identify and reduce inefficiencies associated with either

under-utilized resources or unmet customer demand and to provide satisfactory service levels in a cost-

efficient manner. The plan helps ensure that all infrastructure components are capable of performing all

required functions, that components will perform as efficiently as possible and accommodate

reasonable growth without being overly wasteful.

Capacity requirements can vary greatly from times of peak demand to times of limited demand. As a

result there may be drastic differences in the resources required to maintain normal operations during

periods of peak demand. When planning for what levels of capacity will be supported, it is important to

understand and weigh the costs, benefits, and risks of delivering, or not delivering, a certain level of

capacity.

The intended audience of the Capacity Planis all project stakeholders including theProject Sponsor, Integrated Project Team (IPT), and the project team.
