consider installing project server and using MS project resource pools, it 
integrates with share point and lets you also integrate task management etc so 
you get more bang for your buck.  timsheets are part of it too to track actuals 
to budgets.

the other option is you could just create a resource pool using MS project and 
run it off a local server, it is manual but for 30 people it is pretty simple 
to manage.
