Next, the present invention will be described in detail according to these processing flows.

The work / product definition module 32
Is not directly related to the present invention, and its processing flow is omitted. The processing flow executed by the calculation module 35 will be described later.

The work server 33 issues a work start instruction to the worker via the terminal 2 in accordance with the processing flow of FIG. 13 described later. In response to the start instruction, the worker starts the instructed work. For example, work such as creation of specifications is started. At this time, the worker issues, via the terminal 2, a request to generate a product to be output in the started work.

In response to the request to generate the output product, the work server 33 first refers to the work management database 30 in step 1 as shown in the processing flow of FIG. Identify the artifacts to be output in the work being performed. Subsequently, in step 2, the specified product is generated by interacting with the worker via the terminal 2.

In this manner, when the work server 33 issues a work start instruction to the worker, the work server 33 interacts with the worker to generate a product such as a specification to be output in the work. Will go.

Here, in this processing, when the product management database 31 adopts a configuration in which the entity of the product is also managed, the work server 33 becomes the product server 34.
, The entity of the output target product that has been generated so far is acquired, and is edited according to the interactive processing with the operator, thereby generating the output target product.

When the worker enters the process of generating a product, the worker reports the achievement of the product to be generated to the product server 34 as appropriate. In response to the report on the degree of achievement of the deliverable, the deliverable server 34 first determines the degree of achievement of the deliverable reported by the worker in step 1 as shown in the processing flow of FIG. Register in the database 31. Subsequently, in step 2, the notification module 36 is notified of the registration of the achievement degree of the product.

Upon receipt of the notification of the degree of achievement of this product,
As shown in the processing flow of FIG. 12, the notification module 36 first compares the achievement registered in the deliverable management database 31 with a reference value in step 1,
Check whether the deliverable whose achievement has been reported is completed. For example, when the worker reports the achievement “1” when completing the product, the worker checks whether the product whose completion is reported is completed by comparing with the reference value “1”. You do it.

Subsequently, in step 2, it is determined whether or not the product whose achievement has been reported has been completed according to the check result of step 1, and if it is determined that the product has not been completed, the process is terminated as it is. Then, when it is determined that the work has been completed, the process proceeds to step 3, where the work for inputting the completed work is specified by referring to the work management database 31, and the work server 33 is notified of the work. Notify the name of the product and the name of the completed product.

In this way, the notification module 36
When the work is completed, the work server 33
The work name and the completed product name will be notified.

Upon receiving the notification of the work name / article name, the work server 33 firstly refers to the work management database 30 in step 1 to notify the work server 33 as shown in the processing flow of FIG. It is checked whether the work notified from the module 36 takes a plurality of deliverables as input.

Subsequently, when it is determined in step 2 that a plurality of deliverables are not to be input according to the check result of step 1, that is, when it is determined that one deliverable is to be input, the process proceeds to step 6. In response to the completion of the product required for the work notified from the notification module 36, the worker registered in the work management database 30 via the terminal 2 Instruct the start of the notified work.

On the other hand, when it is determined in step 2 that a plurality of deliverables are to be input according to the check result in step 1, the process proceeds to step 3 and the notification module is referred to by referring to the work management database 30. 3
It is checked whether or not all the flags (flag F shown in FIG. 7) of the work notified from 6 indicate that the product is completed.

Subsequently, when it is determined in step 4 that all the flags indicate the completion of the product in accordance with the check result in step 3, the process proceeds to step 6 where it is necessary to perform the work notified from the notification module 36. In response to the completion of all the resulting products, the worker registered in the work management database 30 via the terminal 2
Instruct the activation of the notified work.

On the other hand, when it is determined in step 4 that all the flags do not indicate the completion of the product in accordance with the check result of step 3, that is, for the work notified from the notification module 36, When it is determined that there is an unfinished product, although the completion of the operation is notified, the process proceeds to step 5 and the operation notified from the notification module 36 is not started and the operation management database 30 is activated. The flag of the registered product that has been notified is set in the product completion display, and the process ends.

As described above, when the work server 33 receives the notification of the completed work name of the deliverable and the completed work name from the notification module 36, the work inputs a plurality of deliverables. While judging whether or not to do,
When it is determined whether all deliverables required for the work have been completed, and when it is determined that all deliverables have been completed, the work is performed for the worker in charge of the work. You will be instructed to do it.

As described above, in the work management apparatus 1 of the present invention, for example, as shown in FIG.
/ Deliverable 2 / Delivery 3 is generated, and work 2 is performed when the work is performed using deliverable 1. When work 1 is completed, work 2 is completed even if work 1 is not completed. The work can be progressed efficiently because it can be inserted.

In this embodiment, when one work uses a plurality of deliverables, it is necessary to wait until all the deliverables are completed before instructing the start of the work. However, a configuration may be adopted in which the activation of the work is instructed when even one product is completed, and thereafter, the configuration is left to the judgment of the worker who executes the work.

In this embodiment, the notification module 3
6 did not detail the reference value used in the judgment processing, but this reference value is used as the product management database 31.
A different value may be used for each product managed by the product, or when a single product has more than one registered work for inputting that product, a different value may be used for each work. May be used.

For example, to specifically explain the management data of the product management database 31 shown in FIG. 8, for the product “document 1”, “0.9” is used as a reference value and “document 5” is used. May be used as a reference value of “1.0”.
Also, “0.8” is used as a reference value for “work 2”, which inputs the product “document 1”, and “work 9”, which inputs the product “document 1”, is used as the reference value. Alternatively, “0.7” may be used.

Also, in this embodiment, the work management database 30 and the work product management database 31 are assumed to start the work of the post-process when the work generated in the work of the previous process is completed. , A configuration that manages a single product generated by the work as an integrated one,
When a part of the product generated in the work of the preceding process is completed, the work of the subsequent process may be started.

A product such as a design specification is hierarchized as shown in FIG. 15. For example, when the first chapter of the design specification is completed, work α can be started. When the second chapter of the book is completed, work β may be started.

In such a case, the work management database 30 and the product management database 31 have a configuration in which data is managed with a part of one product generated by the work as a management target.

For example, in the work management database 30 shown in FIG. 7 and the product management database 31 shown in FIG.
As a deliverable, a configuration in which the deliverable is managed at the level of Document 1 or Document 7 is adopted, but a configuration in which the deliverable is managed at the level of Chapter 1 of Document 1 or Chapter 2 of Document 7 is employed. It is.

In this embodiment, the product management database 31 employs a configuration in which the degree of achievement is managed using the product as a management unit. From now on, as shown in FIG. 8, a plurality of works “work 2” and “work 9” may be registered in the management entry of the work “document 1” as the work for inputting the work. .

On the other hand, the deliverable management database 3
As shown in FIG. 16, it is also possible to adopt a configuration in which the degree of achievement of the product is managed using the paired data of the product and the work as a management unit as shown in FIG. With this management configuration, different achievement levels can be registered for each work of inputting the same deliverable. Therefore, the product server 34
Communicates with the worker when registering the achievement of the product in the product management database 31, while being aware of the work using the product, and The degree of achievement will be registered.

Here, even when this configuration is adopted, as described above, a value indicating a different value for each management entry of the product management database 31 is used as the reference value used in the determination process by the notification module 36. May be used. As described above, it is also possible to adopt a configuration in which data is managed with a part of one product generated in the work as a management target.

Next, an embodiment of the present invention in which work process management is performed using the calculation module 35 will be described. FIG.
Next, an embodiment of the product information managed by the product management database 31 to realize this embodiment is shown.

The product management database 31 of this embodiment
Adopts a configuration that manages the open / close value of the product (which may indicate an analog level value) instead of the achievement level of the product. The open / close value of the deliverable is obtained by the deliverable server 34 from the worker and registered in the deliverable management database 31. As for the deliverable indicating the enable / disable of the deliverable, in principle, all workers It is possible to use.

FIG. 17 shows an embodiment of a processing flow executed by the calculation module 35 when this configuration is adopted. When the calculation module 35 follows this processing flow, the product server 34 registers the release permission / prohibition value of the product in the product management database 31. First, in step 1, the work management database 30 / product management By referring to the database 31, the release permission / prohibition values of all the products generated in the operation of outputting the product are obtained.

Subsequently, in step 2, the achievement level of the work of outputting the product is calculated by calculating the average of the obtained disclosure permission / inhibition values. Subsequently, in step 3, it is determined whether or not the degree of achievement has reached the reference value. When it is determined that the degree of achievement has not been reached, the processing is terminated as it is. Then, the work server 33 is instructed to start the next work.

As described above, in this embodiment, FIG.
As shown in (1), the degree of achievement of the work X is calculated by obtaining the disclosure availability value of the product output by the work X and calculating the average value.

There is a risk of false declaration of the degree of achievement of the work reported by the worker. However, the feasibility of disclosure of the product reported by the worker has room for false declaration due to its nature. Few. From now on, according to this embodiment, the achievement degree of the work can be detected accurately.

In this embodiment, the configuration is adopted in which the achievement level of the work is detected using the availability value of the publication of the product. However, the achievement level of the product used in the above-described embodiment is defined as the achievement level of the publication of the product. It is also possible to use the availability value. With this configuration, the completion of the product can be objectively detected by detecting the completion of the product, so that the work in the post-process can be started without ending the work in the previous process. , The operation start instruction can be executed precisely.

FIG. 20 shows another embodiment of the product information managed by the product management database 31 in order to realize the embodiment of the present invention in which the work process management is performed by using the calculation module 35.

The product management database 31 of this embodiment
Adopts a configuration that manages the reputation value (indicating an analog level value) of the product instead of the achievement level of the product.
The reputation value of the product is obtained by the product server 34 from one or more workers for the published product and registered in the product management database 31.

FIG. 21 shows an embodiment of a processing flow executed by the calculation module 35 when this configuration is adopted. When the calculation module 35 follows this processing flow, when the product server 34 registers the reputation value of the product in the product management database 31, first, in step 1, the work management database 30 / product management database By referring to 31, the reputation values of all the products generated in the operation of outputting the product are obtained.

Subsequently, in step 2, by calculating the average value of the obtained reputation value for each product, the degree of achievement of each product generated in the operation of outputting the product is calculated. Subsequently, in step 3, by calculating the average of the calculated achievements of the deliverables, the achievement of the work of outputting the deliverables is calculated. Subsequently, in step 4, it is determined whether or not the degree of achievement has reached the reference value. When it is determined that the degree of achievement has not been reached, the process is terminated as it is. Then, the work server 33 is instructed to start the next work.

Thus, in this embodiment, FIG.
As shown in (1), the reputation value of the product output by the work X is obtained, and the average value is calculated to calculate the achievement degree of the work X.

While there is a risk of false declaration of the degree of achievement reported by a worker, the reputation value of other workers reported for a published product is false in nature. There is little room for entry. From now on, according to this embodiment, the achievement degree of the work can be detected accurately.

In this embodiment, a configuration is employed in which the achievement level of the work is detected using the reputation value of the product, but the reputation value of this product is used as the achievement level of the product used in the above-described embodiment. It is also possible. With this configuration, the completion of the product can be objectively detected by detecting the completion of the product, so that the work in the post-process can be started without ending the work in the previous process. , The operation start instruction can be executed precisely.
