COMPUTER-BASED SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR FLEXIBLE PROJECT MANAGEMENT

摘要

Computer-implemented system and method for improved management of projects that result in deliverables, such as deliverables to a client or customer. Resources such as staff members and time needed to generate the deliverables are scheduled according to the environment in which they exist. The environment can include the particular asset list the deliverables are part of, the individual staff or teams of staff that are available for assignment or have been assigned to complete a particular list, and the like. Teams may specify a priority of any task. When a deliverable is entered into the system its component tasks behave as a workflow comprising data objects. The data objects are treated in accordance with team-specific attributes. Schedules are revised automatically as tasks are advanced or completed, or as new tasks are added taking into account task priorities and team attributes.
