Project Management Application
The idea was to design a Project Management/Time Sheet Management
application for small and medium sized organizations businesses,
which incorporates a Time Sheet, Task Manager, Project Planner,
Proposal Costing and Organization Resource Manager.
Consider the time sheet aspect only for now.
· The time sheet should be able to provide the following
features:
· Be able to evaluate people at the end of 3 or 6 months
effectively.
· Ensure all people are allocated tasks, and there is no
lack of clarity in anyone's role.
· Be able to trace which people are going to be idle beginning
when, so as to allocate tasks on projects, planned well in advance.
· Actual time spent in building an application as opposed
to planned time.
· To calculate actual time spent so as to figure out whether
person is slow in coding or task time allocation is not accurate
or task is not specified clearly.
The main purpose of the entire application including the task manager,
project planner, proposal costing etc is to be able to make a Project
Proposal, to define each and every screen of the project, as best
as possible right at the proposal stage.
Process
1. Task Flow analysis
2. Defining Key Elements of the Application
3. Authority responsibility relationship between the parties
involved in using the Application
4. Analyzing other similar products in the market
5. Trying to make the application more specific than Generic
6. Presenting initial concepts
7. Group Discussions
8. Revising Approach if required
9. Task flow Analysis of the new Concept
10. Detailing the new concept
11. Structuring
12. Navigation development ( keeping user work load in mind)
13. Room for Scalability/ flexibility
14. Prototyping
15. Testing
