An experienced planner typically can plan work for around 15 craftspeople. This number strikes a balance between manageability and efficiency, allowing the planner to allocate adequate time and resources to each task and worker.

When planning maintenance tasks, the complexity of the jobs, the variances in skill sets among craftspeople, and the availability of materials and equipment must be considered. A planner handling work for 15 craftspeople can maintain effective oversight while ensuring that individual projects receive the necessary attention, optimizing productivity and resource use.

Numbers significantly higher than this, such as 20 or 25 craftspeople, may lead to diminished planning quality, as the planner may struggle to maintain the same level of detail and attention across a larger pool, potentially resulting in inefficiencies or oversight in job specifications or scheduling. Therefore, the figure of 15 is widely recognized as a standard for manageable planning within maintenance environments.
