'''Teamweek (virtual resource management tool)''' is an online project management tool, especially useful for time-sensitive and calendar-based projects.<ref name="Haselmayr (2013)">Haselmary, M. (2013) "5 Types Of Office Collaboration Tools: Which Is Right For Your Team?", July 11th, https://www.forbes.com/sites/allbusiness/2013/07/11/5-types-of-office-collaboration-tools-which-is-right-for-your-team/#440da0ff3bb4 [ONLINE] Accessed September 12th 2017</ref> It is based on an online calendar, in which each member of the given project has a row for assigned tasks throughout the project period. Each task can be customised with a colour, description, duration time, and daily workhour estimates. Finally, when a task is marked done, the design of the task is changed indicating that the task is no longer active.<ref name="Teamweek (2017)">Teamweek (2017) "Teamweek: Free Visual Resource Planning, Team Calendar", https://teamweek.com [ONLINE] Accessed September 12th 2017</ref>

The possibilities include easy coordination of task and resource allocation among team members, enabling an optimised resource use and time scheduling. Each task can be assigned to a specific resource (team member) on a specific date in the calendar, providing the team members with a very visual overview of the project period.
Due to the specifications, Teamweek is an excellent tool for coordination and task allocations within semester projects (project conducted by 4-7 students during a semester term) or a bachelor/thesis project if made in collaboration, where a structured process is key. Though still applicable for multiple other project types.

Teamweek is a result of the Internet of Things era the society currently is exploring, where everything is to be available online and so is the population.<ref name="Morgan (2014)">Morgan, J.
