Project implementation tools – powerful instruments to communicate and coordinate a project workgroup

Project tools are instruments that help to communicate and coordinate project team through realization of project plan. Such project plan is a framework to follow in actions and decisions directed towards deployment of a project in real life environment. Today, the most common and advisable way to put plan in practice is to use computer-based tools that can facilitate and support work and resource management. So what kind of help can be obtained through application of computer-based project tools during carrying out project implementation plan in practice? First of all implementation tools create virtual environment where all deployment participants can be involved into collaboration according to their duties and responsibilities, take their place in project schedule and get individual work packages. Such a virtual environment helps all team members to get a new better level of project perception, but let's consider how this works with a help of specific example.

Proper example of software that provides a set of tools is VIP Task Manager. This client-server software enables outlining individual implementation profile for every team member and establishing collaborative relations between project performers. This project profile includes personal data of a person, his/her position and credentials in deployment hierarchy, belonging to sub-team and other characteristics. Besides mentioned attributes, implementation profile includes responsibilities and tasks assigned to each project participant.VIP Task Manager is a multi-user tool designed for task- and time-oriented workflow management so it provides a set of implementation tools for planning and controlling project schedule as well as maintaining implementation profiles.

Besides schedule management, this software features special capabilities for project document sharing and organizing. As far as process of deployment is supported by a number of essential project documents, people who are involved into working process should have easy access to viewing and editing any necessary document.

VIP Task Manager, as effective project tool, allows implementation planning and controlling through using different adjustable modes (timeline, calendar, task tree, to-do list) and analyzing performance of your workgroup in order to identify project evolution, costs and team efficiency through project charts and project reports.
