Explanation
Fractional assignments describe team members who split their time across multiple projects rather than being dedicated full-time to one. Research and Agile practice confirm that context switching between projects significantly reduces productivity - the 15% per-hour reduction figure is cited in Agile literature. This contrasts with collocated (physical proximity), distributed (geographic spread), or over-allocated (more work than capacity) resource models.
