Challenge

Build a Generative AI assistant that takes as input:

  • Employee database (skills, past projects, availability, cost)
  • Customer project requirements (tech stack, timeline, budget, domain)

Goal

Enable managers to form the best-fit, economically feasible project teams in minutes, rather than days, while providing transparency into why each recommendation was made.

Outputs

  • Optimal team composition: Recommended employees, with justification.
  • Economic feasibility analysis: Skill coverage vs cost vs timeline.
  • Alternative team recommendations: Trade-off scenarios (e.g., lower cost, faster delivery, more experienced).

Impact

  • Faster project staffing → quicker project kick-offs.
  • Higher client satisfaction due to right skills on the right project.
  • Lower staffing costs through data-driven optimization.
  • A scalable framework that can be extended for hackathons, consulting firms, or large enterprise project staffing.
