Peak bench month

Bench definition: the gap to 100% allocation each month, counted only from each consultant's employment start date (the joining month is pro-rated for days actually worked). The three investment projects — Kiota, Origin Rocket Implementations and Project PMP — count as allocated (people are working) but are tracked separately because they pay in equity / at cost, not standard cash revenue. The dashed line on the first chart shows what bench would look like if that investment work were also treated as bench. Other internal time counts as real allocation only for Charlene, Willo, James and Melanie; for everyone else it is treated as bench.

Detail

Individual bench analysis

Only consultants with bench or investment time during the year are listed. The "Current" pill shows status in the latest month (Jun 2026) — green means allocated now, even if they had bench earlier in the year. Five consultants who were fully billable all year are not shown.
