Sprint Capacity Planning Form

Sprint Capacity Planning Form Template

Running effective sprints starts with knowing what your team can actually deliver. This Sprint Capacity Planning Form helps agile teams accurately forecast capacity by tracking team member availability, planned time off, estimated velocity, and realistic commitment levels—all in one place.

Built for Agile Teams Who Need Real Capacity Data

Whether you're running Scrum sprints, Kanban cycles, or hybrid agile workflows, this template captures the details that matter: who's available, for how many days, what their expected velocity is, and how confident they are in their commitments. It's designed for product managers, scrum masters, engineering leads, and agile teams who want to stop over-committing and start planning sprints based on real capacity.

How This Template Helps Your Sprint Planning

Use this form at the start of each sprint to:

• Collect team availability including PTO, holidays, training, and other commitments
• Calculate realistic velocity based on previous sprints and current capacity
• Set clear commitment levels so everyone knows what "done" looks like
• Prevent burnout by planning within actual working hours, not wishful thinking
• Create transparency across product, engineering, and leadership

Automate Your Sprint Workflow with Stepper

Once your team submits their capacity, you can use Stepper to automate what happens next. Send capacity summaries to your project management tool, update sprint boards in Jira or Linear, notify stakeholders in Slack, and trigger reminders for mid-sprint check-ins—all without manual data entry.

Why Paperform for Sprint Planning?

Paperform makes it easy to create on-brand, functional forms that integrate with your existing agile stack. Connect submissions to Airtable, Google Sheets, Notion, or your PM tool of choice. Use conditional logic to show different questions based on role or availability, and let calculations handle velocity math automatically. With SOC 2 Type II compliance and role-based permissions, your sprint data stays secure and accessible to the right people.

Stop guessing at sprint capacity. Start planning with real data from your team, collected in a form that actually works.
