FINAL YEAR PROJECT IDEA

Jobs scheduling and resource management system

This project aims at scheduling the jobs of people in a professional organization along with resources management. Better Jobs scheduling and efficient resources management plays a key role in the progress of companies. Companies normally have a good number of employees that have been assigned different tasks with defined time span. These tasks are managed by managers who distribute the tasks to its team. A task has normally high, medium and low priority with defined time frame and certain restrictions (team members have access level to access and submit the tasks). One employee in this group may have one or many tasks and many employees may serve over one or many tasks. The proposed job scheduler will be able to efficiently manage the employees in groups/teams. Each group will be assigned tasks with timeline, priority of task, access level to task and reward points that will determine the contribution of employee towards successful completion of tasks. The delayed or incomplete tasks will incur penalties to employees in group. In addition, the group members will be given resources to utilize and complete the tasks. The resources will be distributed to members along with resource type and quantity. The proposed automated system will also manage resources and will summarize the details of tasks and resources to relevant manager at the end of group tasks. The proposed system will have an admin that would be able to add / delete / modify different managers (each manager is supposed to be responsible for one department / section). Managers are the people who would classify the employees based over their job nature / area of interest. Admin would notify the jobs to managers and managers would distribute the jobs to people in departments. One job could be divided into a group of tasks defined by manager with task completion time frame and priority of task. People in the department have to attend the tasks based over priority and time frame. The outcomes of the tasks would be submitted to manager. The system would keep track of a scoring scheme assigned for task submission (e.g. early task completion, in time completion, late completion). Admin, managers and people will have a certain access level to the system. The resources being used to complete these tasks would also be managed by the system.
