A Day in the Life of a Scheduler/Planner
The Scheduler/Planner works across accreditation programs, scheduling qualified personnel (AS Branch staff and contracted personnel) for the delivery of accreditation services and activities in line with stated requirements.

The Scheduler/Planner coordinates customer requirements, technical requirements, and personnel availability and qualifications to ensure accreditation services are provided in accordance with the schedule, supporting customer satisfaction and branch revenue projections.

The Scheduler/Planner works with the Customer Service and Technical Service staff and management to review planned assessment status, prioritize assessments, and deal with other potential schedule interruptions or rescheduling, highlighting resource gaps/surpluses and making recommendations for corrective actions.

The Scheduler/Planner analyzes new demand and ensures new assessments are added to the master calendar and schedule with realistic dates, smoothing or leveling the allocation of resources to ensure current and future work can be executed when needed. When capacity and / or resources are scarce, the Scheduler/Planner allocates and prioritizes resources to minimize impact to customers and the Branch.
