You want to lerabn about PERT Charts. In management science books there are techniques to do what you want. The techniques help you get the things scheduled so you maximize the use of your resources. I think you can even find stuff online but if not just go to borders and read about it. Its fairly simple for a small opperation like yours. No insult by saying you are small cause people like UPS , mobil oil , and the Army use these kinds of techniques but they work just fine for small businesses too.

Theres also something called CRP (capacity requirement planning) , you can read about that too. does the same things essentially , but maybe more modern but maybe a little harder or not depending on your exact needs.
