Capacity Planning, Right-sizing & Epic Monte Carlo for Jira

by Thrivve Partners

A free Power BI template using Monte Carlo to forecast Features, feature size and quarterly planning

The Capacity Planning, Right-sizing & Epic Monte Carlo for Jira template is a free, ready-to-use Power BI solution that helps Product Managers, Delivery Managers, Delivery Leads and/or Scrum Masters forecast the likely completion dates of Features/Epics probabilistically (using Monte Carlo simulation). By connecting directly to your Jira (Cloud) data, it forecasts delivery based on the number of child items, highlights whether Features/Epics are appropriately right-sized, and shows how many you have capacity to deliver within a given time period (for example, in quarterly planning). The template enables you to model “what if” scenarios, improve confidence in delivery commitments, and have more transparent conversations about scope, timelines, and risk. It’s designed to work with your own data and serves as a practical, no-cost resource for teams looking to improve predictability and data-informed planning.
