Hierarchical Project Management via Tree Structure Segmentation
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Current project management technologies lack efficient hierarchical management processes that integrate macro and micro management effectively, leading to suboptimal project and task management efficiencies.
Innovation Solution
A hierarchical project management apparatus that performs macro management through a project message thread and micro management through a task message thread, utilizing a tree structure association between macro and micro management blocks, with distinct access rights and processes for project and task management, including note and schedule object management, and work evaluation.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Productivity
If hierarchical macro and micro management processes are implemented, then project management efficiency is improved, but system complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
The management system is divided into macro management blocks for project-level oversight and micro management blocks for task-level execution. This segmentation allows efficient hierarchical processing by separating concerns into distinct functional units that can operate independently yet coordinate through the tree structure association.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent introduces a hierarchical dimension to project management by organizing blocks in a tree structure with multiple levels. This dimensional organization enables simultaneous macro and micro management operations at different hierarchical levels, improving efficiency without requiring a single complex flat system.
2Reliability
If distinct access rights are implemented for macro and micro management blocks, then security and control are improved, but operational complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
Different access rights and control mechanisms are applied locally to macro and micro management blocks based on their specific functional requirements. Macro blocks receive broader access rights for strategic control, while micro blocks have more restricted rights for tactical execution, optimizing both security and operational simplicity for each level.
Data Source
AI summary
A hierarchical project management apparatus includes a memory and a processor electrically connected to the memory. The processor creates a project chatroom associated with a project, creates at least one of a note object, a multimedia file object, and an attachment file associated with a work of the project in the project chatroom, and creates a work object associated with the note object, the multimedia file object, or the attachment file, and including a work creator, a work processor, and a work progress state representing a progress state for each work processing step.
