Example: A Project Manager can create a project titled "Mobile Banking App
Development," specifying key deliverables and deadlines and indicating that
it is being developed "In-house."

 FR2: The system shall include templates for different project types (e.g.,
product development, market expansion).
Example: The module provides templates like "Marketing Campaign" and
"Regulatory Compliance Assessment," with pre-defined tasks and timelines to
expedite project setup.

 FR3: Users shall be able to set project budgets, allocate resources, and
specify whether the project is "In-house" or "Outsourced."
Example: A project budget of SAR150,000 can be set, allocating resources
such as developer time, marketing funds, and software licenses, clarifying
that part of the development will be outsourced to a third-party vendor.
 FR4: The system shall capture project requester details, including name, ID,
department name, and department head.
Example: The project requester, Ahmed Ali (ID: 001234), from the Finance
department, requests the project, with the department head being Sarah
Johnson.

3.2 Task Management


 FR5: The module shall allow users to create, assign, and track tasks within
projects.
Example: Tasks such as "Design User Interface" and "Conduct User Testing"
can be created and assigned to specific team members.

project-related files.
Example: A designer uploads wireframe images and project specifications
that are accessible to all team members for feedback.

3.4 Reporting and Analytics


 FR10: The module shall generate real-time reports on project progress,
resource utilization, and budget status.
Example: A report can show current status as "On Track" or "Behind
Schedule" with graphical representations of resource allocation.

through Gantt charts.
Example: A Gantt chart provides a visual timeline of all project phases,
highlighting start and end dates and dependencies.

 FR12: The system shall provide KPI dashboards to track project performance
against strategic objectives.
Example: A dashboard shows key performance indicators, such as the
percentage of completed tasks, budget spent versus allocated, and overall
team productivity metrics.

roles (e.g., Project Manager, Team Member).
Example: An Admin can create accounts for new employees and assign them
roles based on their responsibilities in various projects.

 FR16: The system shall include a permissions model to restrict access to


sensitive project information.
Example: Only Project Managers and higher roles can view budget details,
while Team Members can only see their assigned tasks.

3.7 Issue Management


 FR17: The system shall allow users to log and track issues encountered
during project execution.
Example: A team member can report an issue regarding "Delayed Backend
Services," providing details such as urgency and assigned resolution team
member.
 FR18: Users shall be able to assign priority levels and deadlines to issues to
facilitate timely resolution.
Example: An issue logged with a priority of "Critical" must be resolved by the
end of the week to avoid project delays.
 FR19: The system shall generate issue reports that summarize unresolved
issues and their status.
Example: A weekly report lists all critical issues yet to be resolved, along with
their assigned personnel and deadlines for resolution.
3.8 Risk Management
 FR20: The system shall provide features to identify, assess, and manage
project risks.
Example: A project risk can be logged for "Regulatory Changes," including its
potential impact and likelihood assessment.
 FR21: Users shall be able to assign risk owners who are responsible for
monitoring and mitigating risks.
Example: A risk associated with the project can be assigned to a specific
team member to ensure regular follow-ups and updates.

ensure timely actions.
Example: Automated reminders are sent to approvers if a project submission
awaits their approval for more than 48 hours.
 FR25: The approval process shall include tracking changes made to project
issuance requests, including reviewer comments.
Example: Comments from stakeholders during the review process are logged
so team members can view feedback on requested changes.

3.10 Project Deliverables Acceptance and Approval Cycle


 FR26: The module shall include an acceptance criteria checklist for project
deliverables to facilitate formal approval.
Example: A deliverable for "User Interface Prototype" can have acceptance
criteria such as functionality tests and stakeholder feedback incorporation.
