Daniela,

You might find some pertinent info. in Chap. 11 ("Staffing a CMS") of 
Bob Boiko's humongous "Content Management Bible." See also pps. 701-8 
of that book re "Staff Modeling."  And Amy Warner [www.lexonomy.com] 
gave some useful info. on resource allocation for content inventories 
in her workshop at the 2003 IA Summit in Portland: "Advanced Taxonomy 
and Metadata Design."  That may (?) still be on www.asis.org or 
elsewhere online, or available directly from her.
