Project Concepts

projects

Not all projects are the same or indeed need to function the same way.  Hence Gemini supports the creation and management of different types of “projects”.

For example, the following types of organization, functional areas can be managed with Gemini:

  • software development
  • consulting engagement
  • general project management
  • help desk / support services
  • sales & marketing
  • IT hardware / data center management

Some projects may well have defined duration (e.g. 6 weeks). Other projects may exist in a continuous fashion (e.g. help desk). 

Regardless of type of project being managed with Gemini, usually you can break down a project into smaller, well-defined areas. These areas can represent either logical or physical parts of a project and are termed Components in Gemini speak. 

Gemini uses the concept of Versions to help define iterations of a given project. Each iteration will usually consist of work items that need to completed within the iteration.  In software development speak, these iterations can represent software releases such such 1.0, 1.1, 2.0, etc.  If non-software projects are being managed with Gemini then the Versions may well represent more time centric labelling such as June, July, August, etc.
