How to say “Politely state availability” professionally

Level 1: Thank you for considering me for this. I'd be happy to discuss my current project commitments and see how I can best align my availability to support this new initiative. Please let me know what timeframe works best for you to connect.

Level 2: I appreciate the opportunity to contribute. To ensure optimal impact, could we briefly review the current project roadmap against my existing priorities to identify the most effective window for this new task? I'm committed to finding a solution that benefits the team.

Level 3: Per the established workload management protocol, I've outlined my current capacity within the resource allocation matrix. Please consult that document to identify potential slots where my availability might align with this new request, ensuring no disruption to existing deliverables.

Level 4: My current calendar reflects a full commitment to Project X and Y for the next two weeks, as previously communicated. If this new task is a higher priority, we will need to re-evaluate and potentially de-prioritize an existing deliverable to maintain quality and deadlines.

Level 5: Check my calendar. It's public.

Level 1: Thank you for reaching out with this request. To ensure we can address it effectively, please provide specific details regarding the scope and desired timeline. I will then review my current schedule and confirm the earliest possible availability.

Level 2: We appreciate you bringing this to our attention. To best support your needs, could you elaborate on the urgency and impact of this new requirement? This will allow us to assess our team's capacity and align our resources to provide the most timely and effective solution.

Level 3: While we value your proactive engagement, any new deliverables outside the agreed-upon Statement of Work (SOW) require a formal change request and subsequent re-scoping. Once that process is complete, we can re-evaluate resource allocation and our team's availability.

Level 4: Our current project commitments are fully aligned with the agreed-upon timeline for [Existing Project]. Taking on this new request would require a re-evaluation of current priorities and potentially impact existing deadlines. Please advise on your preferred approach.

Level 5: Pay more. Then we'll talk.

Level 2: I appreciate you thinking of me for this. My current sprint commitments are quite tight, but if you share the specifics, I can assess if there's a small window or if it might be better suited for someone with more immediate bandwidth.

Level 3: Per the established team capacity guidelines, my current workload is accurately reflected in Jira. If this request requires a reprioritization of my assigned tasks, please ensure it has been formally escalated and approved by our manager before I can commit.

Level 4: I'm currently focused on completing Project A, which has a critical deadline. I won't be available to take on new tasks until after Tuesday. If this is urgent, please loop in our team lead for reassignment.

Level 5: Not my job. Figure it out.
