Our project is fixed bid, but frequently it runs in CRs and this leads to frequent SOW or CR documents. This is overhead for both us as vendor and client. This is long running project going on for 1.5 yrs+, and we expect this to go on for next 2 years due to many enhancements lined up.
We were thinking of going for capacity model where we can define our capacity based on current team strenght to client. We can have product backlog and as per priority team will work on items.
Kindly suggest some templates that can be used to track teams work, burn rate and showcase the team utlization in such cases?

Sneha -

If you have a dedicated team with fixed allocation over a set of sprints, increases or decreases in overall scope should be identified as corresponding increases or decreases in the number of approved sprints.

Burn rate and utilization should remain constant, only the duration of those would vary.

It sounds like your team might be working overtime to meet some of these changes which isn't sustainable and would then necessitate the use of a more traditional time-tracking approach using simple weekly timesheets or a time tracking solution.
