Teamweek (virtual resource management tool) is an online project management tool, especially useful for time-sensitive and calendar-based projects.[1] 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 Finally, when a task is marked done, the design of the task is changed indicating that the task is no longer active.[2]

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.[3] Following the development from planning on hard copies to desktop programs ending, currently, in online project management.
