TOWARD DEVELOPMENT OF STANDARDS FOR WEB-BASED PROJECT MANAGEMENT SYSTEM

Abstract

Web-based Project Management Systems (WPMS) are based on extranet applications for project management. Currently, WPMS software vendors are offering WPMS products on the e-business market. Because of lacking WPMS standards, users lack uniform tools to decide whether the available systems have relevant capabilities to meet their requirements. This research defines an initial approach to the creation of a WPMS standard. Such a standard can provide WPMS users with a rationale for WPMS selection mechanism. The research proposes an outline of an approach to future WPMS standard design.
