Project management is the discipline of planning, organizing, and managing resources to bring about the successful completion of specific project goals and objectives. [1]

It is equally important in construction industry just like in any other industry.

Project management tool will help to standardise the following processes: [2] Construction planning Construction scheduling Construction estimating of costs and expenses Construction documentation processes Purchase and sales processes Change Management and so on

Possibility of remote connection and control of equipment

Performance improvement by bundling mobile functionalities with sold equipment

Better knowledge on where and when each employee is needed

Fewer errors – especially at tasks where mobility reduces the amount of paper reporting

Faster and more accurate communication and information

Reliable and precise inventory control [3]

Our focus for code camp is the ”Task Scheduling” using mobile so that project manager can remotely assign tasks to the onsite workers.

As soon as task is assigned to a worker, his calendar will be updated. He can check for information about tasks like description, deadline and priority of the tasks.

In addition to this , the worker can send status update to the project manager once the task is complete.
