Resource demand management systems and methods

A method of using a graphical user interface to assign workers to one or more projects, the method comprising:

• transmitting, by a server, a first set of processor-executable instructions to a first client device to cause the first client device to display a first user interface configured to receive an input comprising a unique project identifier, a project timeframe, a requesting timeframe, and a requesting skill identifier, wherein the requesting timeframe does not exceed the project timeframe;
• receiving, by the server, the input from the first client device;
• identifying, by the server, a subset of worker profiles representing workers possessing a worker skill and a worker time availability matching the requesting skill identifier, the requesting timeframe and project timeframe specified by the input;
• transmitting, by the server, a second set of processor-executable instructions to a second client device to cause the second client device to present a pop-up notification on a second user interface,
• wherein the second user interface is configured to display:
• a project icon graphically representing at least one project,
• the unique project identifier associated with the project icon,
• the project timeframe,
• the requesting timeframe,
• the requesting skill identifier, and
• a dynamically updated list of workers comprising the workers that match the requesting skill identifier, the requesting timeframe and project timeframe specified by the input,
• wherein each of the workers of the dynamically updated list comprises a unique worker identifier and a worker icon, the worker icon being a graphical element representing at least one worker and visually indicating total hours available and one or more timeslots associated with at least a portion of hours available within the worker icon;
• and
• a utilization rate for each worker of the dynamically updated list of workers, the utilization rate corresponding to an amount of time assigned to projects for each worker skill identifier of that worker over a predetermined period of time;
• and
• assigning, by the server, a unique worker identifier to the unique project identifier based on a drag-and-drop gesture on the second user interface, wherein the drag-and-drop gesture comprises dragging the worker icon from the dynamically updated list of workers toward the project icon;
• dynamically adjusting, by the server, the dynamically updated list of workers based on the assigning;
• displaying, by the server, a message when a utilization rate of a worker associated with the unique worker identifier having at least one worker skill identifier satisfies a predetermined threshold;
• and
• updating, by the server, the second user interface, wherein the server renders the worker icon to be positioned within the project icon.
