Read over the tasks. Know your people and what they are capable of. Assess and match resources to tasks. Budget project time using a realistic measuring rod based upon chief priorities. Allocate resources (and people are resources) to specific tasks. Communicate, communicate, communicate and follow-up. Confront excuses and dismiss them -- because excuses are the parasites that waste and devour time. Look for facts, accept honesty, and demand commitment. Put your name and reputation on it. Ask your team to put their name and reputation on and in it. Then get to work focusing on achieving positive and efficient results.
When projects are needing the same competencies, there is a very high probability that they are quite similar. Therefore, use the solutions found for one of them, also, to the other. Of course, adapting it if the case will be. When time is short, do not try to be very creative, walk on known paths!
I got one similar before but all projects were related to the same customer and this is more easy to handle because your customer with you and you know about the resources and how the progress is. Also the customer can give you the priority of wich project you can handle if you face lake in resources or one project need more resources.
This situation will be more complicated if each project has a different project because you have to assign resources for each project and you have to give the same priority to each project (impossible :)).
So I recommend what I call it : Master project plan which shows you high level of deliverables for all projects in same page.
1. Prioritize and define Simple, medium and complex for your deliverables within the project. Priority1's,2's and one which have complexity should be addressed first. Get the team bying-sign off.
2. Split the experts vs less experts based on the complexity of deliverables.
3. Delegate as appropriate and make people accountable. Build a RACI atleast at a high level and highlight that as part of your status report.
4. Do Risk management on a weekly basis. i.e Capture all the Risks and plan for the Responses and keep a track of it on a regular basis. My experience is that if proper Risk management is done, things can be resolved easily as that's a platform where all your concern which you/project team foresee regarding execution of the vision(plan) can be addressed.Really really important.
Good luck.
