Abstract

This report is consist information about background, system design, implementation, quality assurance of the project of online project management tool with the performance tracker. Software project management activities are very critical and risk associates activities. These activities become exponentially more complex and difficult for large projects. The rapidly growing technology creates a huge demand on accurate, easy to access, management decision supporting system.
