A resilience asset that shows up as an idle cost.
A bench is supposed to be a resilience asset. Too often it's an idle cost nobody can see clearly until it shows up in the margin.
Utilization swings of just a few points can move operating margins by a lot more than that, and most firms are still tracking who's available in a spreadsheet that's out of date the moment someone's assignment changes.

No live visibility into who's ready, who's close, and who's been sitting unassigned
