They make the goal higher though than using full utilization so it really is all the same at the end of the day

Idk, this is the first lead cycle.

What was the utilization goal?

There isn’t one but my peer group eff utilization is 98% for the same period.

I mean I don’t charge over budget.

*i don’t charge over budget unless I’m tracking it as out of scope.

What do y’all consider “effective” util? In my group we just use straight util.

@KPMG1, it’s chargeable hours/(available hours - vacation/holidays/sick/leave)

Can't upvote OP enough.

Basically why haven’t you done any internal initiatives?? You’ve only had 65 hours of client work for the past 3 months. Jfc

Effective util seems like it can be gamed real easy. The people who roll over the most leave at year-end will always have a leg up on their peers for this metric since their denominator will be smaller (assuming they use all the PTO).
